Leavitt Set to Depart Trump Admin For Brief Maternity Leave

Leavitt has not publicly outlined a timeline for her expected leave from daily briefing duties, offering no formal announcement on when she plans to step back. She has, however, shared some personal updates.

According to the UK’s Daily Mail, Leavitt recently celebrated her baby shower and posted photos from the event, including an image with her mother, Erin, alongside close friends.

“My beautiful friends threw me a beautiful baby shower, and I couldn’t be more grateful,” she wrote. “I feel blessed to have so many strong and loving women in my life and can’t believe we will welcome our little lady into the world in a few weeks.”

In December, Leavitt announced on Instagram that she and her husband, businessman Nicholas Riccio, are expecting a girl. She described the news as “the greatest Christmas gift we could ever ask for.”

“My husband and I are thrilled to grow our family and can’t wait to watch our son become a big brother,” Leavitt wrote. The couple’s first child, a son named Niko, was born in July 2024.
