Karoline Leavitt Lands New Fox News Role as she begins a chapter after leaving the White House.
Karoline Leavitt Lands New Fox News Role after leaving the White House press secretary position in August.
Leavitt Begins Her Next Chapter
Leavitt served as White House press secretary before leaving the administration in August to prioritize family needs.
Her departure followed the birth of her second child, prompting her decision to pursue a new arrangement.
Trump announced her exit while describing Leavitt as a trusted aide and outside adviser within his political orbit.
Fox News Announces New Position
Leavitt later confirmed plans to work with MAGA Inc., while considering professional opportunities after leaving government service.
Now, her Fox News appointment gives viewers a platform for commentary shaped by government experience and campaign.
Leavitt will provide commentary across programming and contribute analysis beginning November 1, according to the announcement Monday.
From White House Briefings to Television
The announcement places Leavitt among former Trump administration officials who established media careers after leaving government service.
Leavitt previously interned at Fox News during college before entering Republican politics and joining Trump’s political operation.
Her White House tenure began in January 2025, when she became the youngest press secretary in history.
During that period, Leavitt regularly defended administration policies while addressing reporters and appearing across conservative media platforms.
A Familiar Media Path
Her transition into television commentary keeps her connected to national political discussions surrounding Trump’s administration and agenda.
Meanwhile, the White House faces the task of selecting someone to permanently replace Leavitt as press secretary.
That decision could shape the administration’s communication strategy while Leavitt begins building her chapter outside government service.
What Her New Role Means
Leavitt’s new position also reflects the familiar path between conservative politics, presidential communications, and television commentary careers.
Her upcoming role will allow her to discuss political developments while drawing upon experience inside Trump’s administration.
The move also keeps Leavitt visible nationally after stepping away from one of Washington’s highest-profile communications positions.
