President Donald Trump said Monday he’s weighing ousting his US ambassador to Greece.

Speaking with reporters on the way to his rally in Youngstown, Ohio, Trump shared that he was considering axing Kimberly Guilfoyle, before adding, ‘Yeah. We’re not happy,’ when asked about her conduct.

His remarks came a day after a US official said Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio were ‘extremely pissed off’ over a string of allegations against Guilfoyle, and would likely decide her fate this week.

Rubio was said to be particularly furious. He visited Athens just last week, where Guilfoyle attended some of his events and greeted him on arrival with a bear hug as the allegations swirled.

A series of reports has alleged that Guilfoyle threatened a host country official, accepted improper gifts and services and offered to use her influence inside the administration in return for payment of a large credit card bill.

On Thursday, the top Democrats on the Senate and House foreign affairs committees urged Rubio to investigate, citing the Journal’s reporting.

‘If these reports are accurate, Ambassador Guilfoyle is unfit to represent the United States abroad and should be removed from her position,’ wrote Representative Gregory Meeks of New York, the top House Foreign Affairs Democrat.

An embassy official said last month that Guilfoyle ‘continues to follow all State Department ethical guidelines.’

The Daily Mail has also exclusively reported that her party girl lifestyle has landed Guilfoyle in hot water with members of Trump’s family.

Trump-world insider Eric Deters, who Guilfoyle reportedly asked for a six-figure payment, told the Daily Mail that she recruited Deters’ wife and her friend to secretly sneak alcohol to her during a political festival, acting ‘like a high schooler’ hiding booze from her parents.

When the event ended, Guilfoyle insisted on packing up all the leftover catered VIP food to take home, Deters said.

He added that she begged him to compliment her in front of Donald Trump Jr, her former fiancé, in the hope of ‘winning back his favor.’

The pair ended their engagement in late 2024, and Trump Jr is now with Bettina Anderson.

Guilfoyle’s affinity for Champagne and parties have widely been documented, and insiders urged her to be on good behavior after she was tapped to be President Donald Trump’s Greek Ambassador, cautioning that an assignment amid Aegean islands and endless summers wasn’t a green light for nonstop partying.

Guilfoyle’s lawyers have hit back at the allegations, insisting the dispute with Deters concerns unpaid work rather than an attempt to sell access to the administration.

In a statement reported Monday, they said he owed her approximately $150,000 for speaking engagements and consulting work performed in 2024 and early 2025.

Still, Republicans have begun to sour on Guilfoyle, with Senate Majority Whip John Barasso telling CBS anchor Margaret Brennan on Face The Nation Sunday that the reports about the ambassador were ‘very troubling,’ as well as ‘concerning.’

He added that he expected the State Department to conduct an investigation into the ambassador, before noting that ‘the Senate Foreign Relations Committee will have oversight and look into that as well.’
