Who is Karoline Leavitt?

Karoline Leavitt, 27, who is set to become the youngest White House press secretary in the United States, serving under Donald Trump, hails from New Hampshire. Leavitt studied communications and political science at Saint Anselm College, a Catholic college in her home state. During her school days, Leavitt has interned at Fox News and in Trump’s White House press office. In 2020, she told Politico that she gained her ‘first glimpse into the world of the press’ through these experiences. She also added that the same experience prompted her to pursue a career in press relations. The website for her 2022 run for Congress confirms that after graduating in 2019, Leavitt started working for the first Trump White House, as a presidential speechwriter and later as assistant press secretary. After her White House tenure, Leavitt was appointed as communications director for a senior Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik. Prior to the 2024 campaign, Leavitt served as a spokesperson for MAGA Inc., a super PAC supporting Trump.

Karoline Leavitt’s family and love life

During Christmas last year, 2023, Karoline Leavitt announced her wedding and posted a picture of her partner Nick, an American businessman proposing. “The best Christmas of my life. I get to marry the man of my dreams. I feel SO overwhelmingly BLESSED. Thank you God,” she wrote in her Instagram post.

According to The Conservateur Nick is a self-employed business owner. While wrapping up 2023, Leavitt shared some memorable moments of the year, including meeting the love of her life. Sharing the glimpses on Instagram, she captioned, “A year full of family, friends, travel, lots of work, and so much love. One of the happiest + most fulfilling years of my life. 2024, let’s go!”

New mom

Along with the many hats she dons, being a mother is her favourite. Karoline Leavitt and Nick welcomed their son Nicholas in July 2024. In a note shared on Instagram, she spoke about the birth of their son. “July 10, 2024. 11:25PM. The moment our son was born. The moment I officially became a mom. The best moment of my life. It’s true when they say there’s nothing comparable to the love you feel for your child. My heart has grown bigger than I ever imagined possible. Babies are the ultimate blessing and I’m bursting with gratitude for our beautiful, happy, healthy boy. Nicholas Robert aka Niko. My son. I love you,” she said in her note.

Leavitt was back on television four days after delivering her first child. Talking to The Conservateur, she stated that she ‘felt compelled to be present in this historic moment’. She added that the president ‘literally put his life on the line to win this election’ and the least she could do was get back to work quickly.
