Q: On Fox News’ "The Five," what happened to the lady named Kim who used to be on there? I haven't seen her in a while.

A: Kimberly Guilfoyle, 49, left the network in July, and went to work for a pro-Donald Trump Super PAC, America First Policies, to campaign for Republicans in the 2018 election.

There are differing stories about why she left Fox News. The Huffington Post reported that she was forced out over sexual harassment allegations. Anonymous supporters told The Daily Beast that enemies at the network had lied about her conduct.

Before her television career, Guilfoyle was a prosecuting attorney in Los Angeles and San Francisco and an assistant district attorney in San Francisco.

Guilfoyle moved to New York in 2004 to host a program on Court TV. She joined Fox News in 2006 and became a co-host on “The Five” in 2011. She signed a long-term contract extension with the network in June 2017.

A longtime friend of the Trump family, Guilfoyle began dating Donald Trump Jr. in May of 2018 and spent the Christmas and New Year's holidays with the Trumps at the first family's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. On Tuesday, Guilfoyle tweeted about her boyfriend’s sister, calling Ivanka Trump “an inspiration to so many women!”

After Trump was elected president in 2016, there were reports that Guilfoyle was being considered for the press secretary position that went to Sean Spicer, and that she was considered again after Spicer left the position in May of 2017.

Guilfoyle was married to current California Gov. Gavin Newsom from 2001 to 2006 and to interior designer and businessman Eric Villency from 2006 to 2009.
