I don’t feel like starting work yet this morning, so I’m going to tweet out highlights from the 2004 “New Kennedys” @harpersbazaarus story, for everyone just discovering that Guilfoyle was married to Newsom https://twitter.com/jeremybwhite/status/1298286826357047296
Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom wore crystal-encrusted Vera Wang with a "something borrowed" tiara courtesy of philanthropist and friend Ann Getty at her Newsom’s 600 person wedding, where bomb-sniffing dogs swept the church bc of death threats:
This is A LOT: “what promises to be one of the most glamorous political unions since Jack and Jackie.”
“The photogenic California couple...are set to cut a wide swath across future Democratic politics.”
At the time, Kimberly was living M - F in NY for TV jobs as a legal analyst and Court TV co-anchor and community back to SF every other weekend “to fulfill the obligations of an urban First Lady.”
"You get tired," concedes the 35-year-old commuter, who's back in Manhattan Sunday night, "but I'm super-high-energy-Miss Hard Work-so I manage because I'm so lucky to have this great job I love."
locked eyes at a political fundraiser leads to love:
“Gavin likes my being able to get up and make speeches,” said his then wife.
Ann Getty was also decorating their Russian Hill apartment for them.
Kimberly Guilfoyle may have warned at the RNC that “the socialist Biden-Harris future for our country” would look like that flaming dump of a state California (run by none other than her ex Gavin Newsom), but back in ‘04 she wanted to see Newsom as president:
Fascinating, from the 2018 WaPo profile:

"Guilfoyle says she’s always been a Republican, having registered with the party at 18, and that she aligned with Newsom’s pro-business mentality. "
"When Gretchen Carlson publicly accused Ailes of sexual harassment, Ailes’s wife, Beth, enlisted Guilfoyle to rally women to his defense."

Kamala Harris and Guilfoyle also go wayyyyy back: Here's a 2003 @sfchronicle column titled "Brains, brio, beauty --and wounded feelings" on the topic: https://www.sfgate.com/politics/article/Brains-brio-beauty-and-wounded-feelings-2512633.php
