Former President Donald Trump has been accused of using Photoshop to make himself look better in a photo posted to social media.

Trump was seen posing alongside former Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle, the fiancé of his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., at his Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago.

Guilfoyle posted the photo to her Instagram as part of a montage of photos from a shoot she did for Impact Wealth magazine.

In the image with Trump, Guilfoyle is wearing a long pink gown, and the former president is standing beside her in a white polo, red MAGA cap and giving the thumbs up.

That image later did the rounds on social media and was mocked by many.

"Another normal day at Mar-a-Lago," wrote Ron Filipkowski, an attorney and former federal prosecutor on X.

Newsweek contacted Trump's representatives by email and Guilfoyle by Instagram for comment.

"This is obviously photoshopped since he is about [100] lbs heavier these days," wrote one person on X.

Another added: "I was looking at the aura surrounding each of them. I'm guessing filter first and then Photoshop."

And a third wrote: "Very poorly photoshopped, yes."

Guilfoyle was featured as a cover star for Impact Wealth's winter issue but faced a lot of criticism for her choice of outfits.

She starred on the cover of the magazine which describes itself as "a luxury lifestyle magazine that caters to ultra-high-net-worth individuals and the family office industry."

In the cover story interview, Guilfoyle spoke about her investment in PublicSquare, which she explained was the "largest directory of freedom-loving businesses in America."

"Right now, more than ever, I am focused on supporting and investing in values-aligned businesses. As Americans, we should NOT have to choose between what we buy and what we believe. I want to shop my values. Therefore, I invested in PublicSquare, America's marketplace for freedom-loving businesses," she said.

Guilfoyle also talked about her talk show on video platform Rumble, which grew to notoriety for continuing to host controversial figures such as comedian Russell Brand and Andrew Tate who had been demonetized or banned from other platforms.

"I am thrilled to have a home on Rumble, which is now at the center of this new media era. We can finally cut through the noise from the mainstream media and speak directly to the American people, unfiltered about issues that matter to them," she told the magazine of her bi-weekly show.

Although now identifying as a Republican, Guilfoyle was previously married to then-San Francisco mayor and current California governor, Gavin Newsom.

She became engaged to Trump Jr. on New Year's Eve in 2020.
