Karoline Leavitt made history by becoming the youngest Press Secretary of the White House at 27. Even since Donald Trump returned to the office, she has been grabbing eyeballs for her strong media presence. But that’s not the only reason why she remains in the headlines.

Leavitt’s personal life is often dragged as people question her position within the Trump administration. The 27-year-old is often trolled for her marriage with 60-year-old Nicholas Riccio. The couple’s age gap is more than double, and therefore, people often jokingly refer to Riccio as Leavitt’s ‘father’ in the comment section of her Instagram posts.

However, the couple remains unbothered. Both Riccio and Leavitt have worked hard for their empire. Leavitt’s career graph is widely known among fans of Republicans. She was inclined towards politics since college and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in communications and politics. She interned at Fox News and the White House Office before she became what she is today!

Her husband, too, has an inspiring career graph. He takes pride in being a self-made millionaire at the age of 60. Riccio used to bag groceries post-college. Talking about his struggles, he once told Portsmouth Herald, “When I was 19 or 20, I would call my buddies to go over [to] their houses to watch a game just so I could take a shower.”
