Kimberly Guilfoyle made a memorable entrance during her initial meeting with Greece’s president on Tuesday, delivering a remark that quickly captured media attention.

Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host and one-time fiancée of Donald Trump Jr., was greeted by Greek President Konstantinos Tasoulas, who inquired whether this was her first visit to Greece.

“I have! I actually covered the Olympic Games in 2004 for ABC News,” Guilfoyle responded, adding with a smile, “I also had a honeymoon here in 2004. It was a fabulous honeymoon, but…”

Tasoulas interjected with a chuckle, “The honeymoon was fabulous, but the marriage?”

“We’ll work on getting a new husband,” Guilfoyle quipped with a touch of nervous laughter.

She continued by fondly recalling her travels across Greece, mentioning Athens, Hydra, Corfu, Mykonos, and Santorini as some of her favorite destinations.

Their meeting at the presidential mansion was the first time she formally presented her credentials to Tasoulas. 

On Wednesday, Ambassador Guilfoyle is scheduled to meet with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. 

Guilfoyle’s diplomatic focus is expected to come into sharper view later this week at the Transatlantic Energy Cooperation Forum in Athens — a high-level meeting drawing US officials Chris Wright and Doug Burgum, along with energy ministers from two dozen European countries.

‘We’ll work on getting a new husband,’ Guilfoyle shot back with nervous laughter to the Greek president. 

The upcoming P-TEC summit, the Partnership for Transatlantic Energy Cooperation — is set to give Greece’s energy sector a major lift and cement its status as a vital supply hub for Southeast Europe. 

Guilfoyle touched down in Athens around noon on Saturday, arriving in Greece aboard billionaire Eric Vassilatos’ private jet. She marked her arrival with a cheerful post on social media, writing ‘Hello, Greece’ in Greek. 

Stepping out shortly after 10 p.m. alongside her son Ronan, Guilfoyle greeted photographers with a wave and a smile, posing in a plush fur jacket before heading inside.

Once seated at her front-row table, the ambassador was personally welcomed by pop sensation Konstantinos Argyros, who serenaded the crowd with his biggest hits.

At one point, a fellow guest invited Guilfoyle onto the dance floor — she obliged briefly before returning to her seat, later joining in enthusiastically on the traditional Greek Syrtaki and Kalamatiano dances, linking arms with guests in a circle to dance.

The glitzy evening followed a much larger event at the Grand Hyatt, which drew more than 300 guests. 

By contrast, Sunday’s celebration at the Athens Center was an intimate affair of around 150, attended by several leading figures from Greece’s business and political circles, including Tourism Minister Olga Kefalogianni.

Taking to the stage, Guilfoyle kept her message simple: ‘I will not disappoint you.’
