Stress, burnout and pleas from Trump: Inside press secretary Karoline Leavitt's exit from the White House
Karoline Leavitt, who is the youngest press secretary, returned to the White House two months after welcoming her second child.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced her decision to resign from her role on Tuesday, citing the need to focus on her family. Leavitt, the youngest press secretary, returned to the White House two months ago after welcoming her second child. The decision, described as bittersweet by Leavitt, was not as sudden as it may seem.
Sources claim she had been considering leaving during her maternity leave, as President Donald Trump would frequently call her during that time to inquire about her return date. Despite Trump's efforts to retain her, Leavitt experienced significant burnout and felt unable to maintain her performance while juggling her children's needs.
Her family, including her newborn children, became her top priority. Katie Miller, wife of Trump aide Stephen Miller, praised Leavitt's talent and potential for future accomplishments. Trump expressed respect for Leavitt's decision and affirmed her continued role as a key adviser for the White House and influential voice for the Republican Party ahead of the mid-term elections in November.
