Guilfoyle also touched on her honeymooning experience in Greece. At the time, she had just gotten married to Newcom, and recalled that it was a “fabulous honeymoon, but…” The host jumped in and clarified, “Honeymoon was fabulous, but the marriage?” Guilfoyle replied, “We’ll work on getting a new husband.”

As the conversation progressed, Guifoyle also talked about how important family bonds were for her as well. She shared how her father’s guidance shaped her approach to relationships and career decisions.
After her mother died, her father used that experience to instil in her how strong she really was. “Kimberly, you must be strong. You have talent, abilities, and nothing worse can happen to you in life than losing your mother. Be strong, endure.”
And so she did.

Her dad was also instrumental in how she viewed herself. “‘He always said, ‘Whatever boys can do, you can do better.’ I believed him. He was my father,” Guilfoyle said. It was for this reason that she had such great professional success. The ambassador also encouraged other women to do the same.
Amid the personal reflections, she emphasized her diplomatic priorities. Guilfoyle highlighted Greece’s strategic potential. She stated, per the Greek Reporter, “We want to show that Greece can become the energy hub that will help us resist Russian and Chinese interests. What we are seeking is energy independence, which will assist in national defense and national security.

“She described ongoing energy projects with enthusiasm, including LNG imports, pipeline expansions, and cooperation with neighboring countries.
Guilfoyle also praised Greek leadership. She talked about Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and her experience with the other ministers so far. “There is huge enthusiasm. The Prime Minister is very excited about the relationship and what we have achieved.”
She added, “The ministers I am working with and met months before arriving, we managed to achieve very significant results that surprised many people. Because we achieved so much in only a few days.”
Guilfoyle’s Greek TV debut gave viewers a rare window into the ambassador’s life, combining serious policy goals with a warm personality.
