Jimmy Fallon attempted to maintain a straight face during his "Tonight Show" monologue when an audience member reacted loudly to the news of Karoline Leavitt's resignation as White House press secretary. "Some more big news today, Trump announced that Karoline Leavitt is resigning as White House press secretary," Fallon remarked.

A few audience members joined in the celebration, while others groaned at the interruption. Fallon laughed off the unexpected moment and continued with his monologue. The White House press secretary's resignation came hours after President Donald Trump announced it via Truth Social, stating that Leavitt would be leaving to spend more time with her family.

Leavitt expressed gratitude for her role and the President's trust, describing the position as "the honor and adventure of a lifetime."
