Guilfoyle was supposed to be in South Dakota on Friday.
Kimberly Guilfoyle, who is dating the President’s oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., tested positive for the new coronavirus while in South Dakota.
She was expected to attend the event on Friday night at Mount Rushmore. Known sources added that Trump Jr. tested negative.
Neither has been in direct contact with the President and has not flown on Air Force One. She is asymptomatic.
“After testing positive, Kimberly was immediately isolated to limit any exposure. She is doing well and will be re-evaluated to ensure the diagnosis is correct as she is asymptomatic, but as a precaution she will cancel all upcoming events,” said Sergio Gor , chief of staff for the Victoria Victoria Finance Committee, said in a statement. “Donald Trump Jr was negative, but as a precaution he also isolates himself and cancels all public events.”
Trump Jr., 42, and Guilfoyle, 51, will drive home instead of taking a flight, a source said.
Guilfoyle, a former Fox News presenter, is the national chair of the Trump Victory 2020 Finance Committee, the president’s re-election campaign, and focuses specifically on fundraising. She and Trump Jr. often lead fundraising events together.
The event the couple was expected to attend, a July 4 celebration on Mount Rushmore, has been a long-planned goal by President Donald Trump. Friday’s fireworks celebration, expected to draw thousands, ends a week during which the US has established alarming new records of daily coronavirus cases, more than 50,000 per day, and public health experts. have warned that crowds could produce a “super -spreader” event.
The large-scale event openly ignores the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, and South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem offers a strong message to stakeholders: There will be no social distancing .
“We told those people who are concerned that they might stay home, but those who want to come and join us, we will give them free face masks, if they choose to wear one. But we are not going to distance ourselves socially.” We ask you to come, be ready to celebrate, to enjoy the freedoms and freedoms that we have in this country, “Noem said in an interview with Fox News on Monday.
Guilfoyle and Trump began dating in 2018. She is the ex-wife of California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom.
