Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Karoline Leavitt To Leave White House At End Of August
Caption: Karoline Leavitt To Leave White House At End Of August. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt will leave her role at the end of August, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced. Trump said Leavitt was stepping down to spend more time with her family after giving birth to her second child, Viviana, in May. The president said Leavitt would remain one of his "top outside advisors" and an influential voice within the Republican Party. Leavitt described serving as press secretary as the "honor and adventure of a lifetime" but said she wanted to devote more time to being a mother. She returned to the White House last month after taking a leave of absence following the birth of her daughter. Leavitt has served as White House press secretary since the beginning of Trump's second administration. She previously worked in the White House during Trump's first term and later served as assistant press secretary under Kayleigh McEnany. The White House has not yet announced who will succeed Leavitt or when her replacement will be named. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
