(CNN) — White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Friday that she and her husband are expecting their second child, a baby girl due in May of next year. The press secretary has frequently discussed balancing motherhood and the demands of working on the Trump campaign and in the White House. In a 2024 interview with right-wing outlet “The Conservateur,” Leavitt discussed returning to work just four days after giving birth to her son because of the Butler, Pennsylvania assassination attempt. “I felt compelled to be present in this historic moment,” she told the outlet. The least I could do is get back to work quickly.”The-CNN-Wire™ & © 2025 Cable News Network, Inc., a Warner Bros.
