Read our privacy policy Kimberly Guilfoyle has lashed out at her former employer Fox News and vowed to defy its “pathetic” rule banning Donald Trump’s campaign team from the media spin room at the Republican primary debate. Ms Giulfoyle, a former Fox News host and the fiancée of Mr Trump’s eldest son Don Jr, dared the network to “try to stop” them from joining the event in Milwaukee on Wednesday night. She added: “And I’d just like to see somebody try to stop Don Jr and me from going someplace.” Her fiery comments came after Fox News punched back at Mr Trump, restricting his aides from participating in the traditional post-debate “spin room” after the former president refused to participate in the debate. Fox News’ host Bret Baier, who will be moderating the debate along with Martha MacCallum, clarified that Mr Trump’s surrogates can enter the spin room – but only by invitation from a media organisation.
