Trump donor accuses Guilfoyle of asking him to pay her $100K credit card bill

Former lawyer and Trump donor Eric Deters has accused U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle of requesting $100,000 from him in exchange for access to high-level Trump administration officials. Deters alleged that Guilfoyle asked him to pay her credit card bill in July 2025, days before her Senate confirmation hearing, in a quid pro quo arrangement.

According to messages Deters provided to ABC News, Guilfoyle allegedly wrote "Honey please I need you to get this done for me today," referencing the desired payment. Guilfoyle's attorney disputed the authenticity of these messages, suggesting the money could be for travel and speaking expenses. Deters denies owing Guilfoyle any money and stated he did not make the payment because he lacked the funds.

Deters, who ran for Kentucky governor in 2023 and the House in 2024, has a history of legal issues, including a suspended law license in Kentucky. He believes Guilfoyle would use her influence to help him on specific issues, such as pressing for the extradition of an Ohio doctor living in Pakistan. The U.S. Embassy in Greece has stated that Guilfoyle's career is guided by integrity and she remains committed to representing American people with dedication.
