Who

The square-jawed host of Fox News' The Line Up, Guilfoyle is the former wife of San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsome and the current wife of furniture heir Eric Villency.

Backstory

Born to a Puerto Rican mom and Irish construction worker dad, Guilfoyle was born and raised in San Francisco and worked as an underwear model during college at UC Davis. She traded up to catalog modeling while attending law school at the University of San Francisco, and worked as an assistant district attorney in San Francisco after graduating. When a new DA was elected in 1996, he sent Guilfoyle packing, and she lived in LA for four years before returning to the DA's office in San Francisco in 2000. The high-profile dog mauling death of Bay Area resident Diane Whipple in 2001 first landed Guilfoyle in the spotlight, and she became even more prominent when she started dating Gavin Newsom, the ambitious city supervisor who was preparing a bid for mayor. After he was elected in 2003, Guilfoyle became the city's First Lady, but the marriage soon crumbled, at which point she moved to New York and joined Court TV as co-host of Both Sides. In January 2006, Guilfoyle found a home at Fox News as the host of the one-hour crime program The Line Up, which airs on Saturday and Sunday evenings.

Personal

A former girlfriend of oil heir Billy Getty, Guilfoyle started dating Newsom in 2001 and they were married in 2003. They divorced in 2005—and Newsom has since admitted to having an affair with his chief of staff. In 2005, after moving to NYC, Guilfoyle started dating Eric Villency, the president of Maurice Villency; they tied the knot in the summer of 2006 at the Sandy Lane Resort in Barbados. They had their first child, a son named Ronan, in October 2006.

Habitat

Villency and Guilfoyle purchased a two-bedroom apartment on the 32nd floor of the Trump International for $3.9 million in 2006. They sold it less than a year later for $4.895 million and are now living in a rented apartment in the same building.

True story

When Guilfoyle lived in San Francisco, she became such a local personality that a chain of juice stores created a menu item in her honor, the Krazy Kimba, a concoction of strawberries, blueberries, apples, and frozen yogurt.
