Anthony Scaramucci, the infamous, fiery, short-lived former White House communications director, is wooing glamorous Fox News anchor Kimberly Guilfoyle, multiple sources tell Page Six — even as the couple deny they are an item.
Page Six exclusively revealed on July 29 that the Mooch’s wife of three years, Deidre Ball, had filed for divorce while nine months pregnant. Scaramucci lasted 11 days in the DC job and was ousted by President Trump on July 31.
The reason for his firing was said to be an expletive-laden interview he gave to the New Yorker — in which he blasted former White House chief of staff Reince Priebus and ex-Trump adviser Steve Bannon. According to political reports at the time, the Mooch was infuriated by reporters tweeting that he had been at a dinner with Trump and first lady Melania on July 26, along with Guilfoyle, which he was said to have feared would “raise suspicion.” We revealed just three days later that his wife had filed for divorce, but it is still not finalized.
Scaramucci and Guilfoyle — a co-host of Fox News’ “The Five” and former assistant district attorney and first lady of San Francisco — have repeatedly denied they are a couple, even amid reports of them house-hunting together in Manhattan and of a romantic trip to Rome last month, where they were photographed cuddling up at a charity gala.
A source close to the Mooch insisted he and Guilfoyle were “just very good friends who enjoy each other’s company .?.?. It is too early to call them a couple. He is busy establishing his post-White House career.” The source added that Scaramucci was focused on his new prospects, such as speaking gigs and TV and movie deals, having previously sold his company Skybridge Capital before his move into politics.
A source close to Guilfoyle added, “Kimberly thinks the world of Anthony. He is one of her best friends, but they are not a yet a couple. He is still going through a divorce. She is a single mom, and her son is her priority.”
Reps for Guilfoyle and Scaramucci declined to comment on the record.
