Former press secretary Karoline Leavitt lands her next gig: Fox News contributor

New York — Former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has now embarked on a new path: she is joining Fox News as an on-air contributor starting from November 1st, announced the network on Monday. According to the network's chief executive Suzanne Scott, "Karoline’s personal experience inside the White House and during the presidential campaign campaign has provided her with a unique insight into the current political scene."

Simultaneously, Leavitt expressed her enthusiasm via a statement: "I am eager to leverage my distinct viewpoint derived from my time as White House Press Secretary, coupled with the same vigor and candidness that characterized my tenure, to Fox's large audience across their various platforms." At the time of her exit in late August, President Donald Trump hailed her as one of his "most trusted aides."

She mentioned her primary reason for leaving was to spend more quality time with her children, who are two and five years old. Notably, Leavitt holds the distinction of being the youngest individual to serve as press secretary during her tenure. It's worth mentioning that Leavitt isn't the first Trump's press secretary to transition to Fox News.
