A Fox News alum says Kimberly Guilfoyle showed friends explicit photos matched with an American Express “Black Card,” and that claim now echoes older allegations and a hefty settlement.
Story Snapshot
- Lisa Kennedy Montgomery alleges Guilfoyle shared at least three photo pairings of genitals and an American Express Centurion card.
- Media outlets repeated the specific “credit card next to genitals” detail after Kennedy’s account.
- A former assistant’s earlier allegations described lewd images and ended in a reported multimillion-dollar settlement.
- Guilfoyle has issued categorical denials of misconduct and called the new claims false.
The New Claim: Photos Paired With a Black Card
Lisa Kennedy Montgomery wrote that Kimberly Guilfoyle showed her and friends intimate photos next to the man’s American Express Centurion card, front and back. Kennedy said there were at least three of these pairings. She framed it as casual and bragging. Her account ran as a first-person piece and named the card brand and the setup in detail. Mediaite captured that same detail while also citing Guilfoyle’s denial of the new claim.
Several outlets echoed the same core element: explicit images alongside a credit card photo. That uncommon pairing matters because it makes the story specific and memorable, not generic gossip. When separate publications repeat a distinct detail, readers tend to view it as more credible. But they still rely on one named eyewitness and no public corroboration so far. No images, no dates, and no device data appear in the public record.
How This Fits Earlier Allegations and a Settlement
The New Yorker reported in 2020 that a former assistant accused Guilfoyle of showing photographs of male genitalia and engaging in sexualized talk at work. The report said a dozen sources were familiar with the assistant’s draft complaint. That complaint never went to court, but multiple outlets later reported Fox News paid the assistant more than four million dollars in a settlement. A settlement signals risk and cost, not proof of every claim.
The earlier reporting does not confirm Kennedy’s credit-card detail. It does show that the type of behavior she describes lines up with prior allegations from a different witness. That overlap will look persuasive to some, since patterns matter in workplace cases. Yet the absence of a court ruling or released investigative files keeps the facts contested. Non-disclosure agreements often block public access to the most telling records.
Guilfoyle’s Denial and the Credibility Contest
Guilfoyle has denied the new claim. She also previously said she never engaged in workplace misconduct of any kind. A lawyer for her called any suggestion of Fox-related misconduct “patently false.” These statements are unambiguous and broad. They offer no alternate timeline or explanation for the alleged images, but they set a clear line in the sand: the claims are false.
The standoff now rests on what can be verified. Kennedy’s account is vivid and specific, which often signals a strong memory. But strong memories still need support. The best next step would be named witnesses who confirm seeing the same photos at the same time, plus messages or device logs that time-stamp the show-and-tell. Without that, the public is left weighing reputations, not records.
Why This Resonates Beyond Tabloids
Sexualized conduct at work, real or alleged, often travels with retaliation fears, secret settlements, and incomplete files. That mix keeps the public record thin, which benefits the well-lawyered. Federal workplace data show that harassment complaints often pair with claims of retaliation, and many cases resolve quietly. That pattern explains why stories like this recur with more heat than light, and why institutions pay to move on without admitting fault.

The conservative lens prizes personal responsibility, dignity at work, and truth tested by evidence. If Kennedy’s account is true, flashing explicit trophies around colleagues crosses a clear line of workplace respect. If it is not true, public smears should face costs. Either way, sunlight helps. The path forward is not more anonymous whispers, but named witnesses, preserved files, and a chance for both sides to put facts, not flair, on the record.
