Former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is joining Fox News as an on-air contributor, the network announced on Monday.
Leavitt, 29, stepped down in August after serving as President Trump’s chief spokeswoman and is set to begin at the cable network on Nov. 1.
She is expected to appear across both Fox’s news and opinion programming, according to a press release obtained by The Post.
The Times reported that Leavitt left Washington after the birth of her second child and now lives with her family in New Hampshire.
She had said she wanted to spend more time with her children while remaining a vocal supporter of Trump and the Republican Party.
Leavitt becomes the second former Trump press secretary to move to Fox News, following Kayleigh McEnany.
Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott told the Times that Leavitt’s White House and campaign experience gives her a distinctive view of the current political landscape.
Fox News is property of Fox Corp — sister company to The Post’s corporate parent News Corp.

A girl’s gotta eat.
I wonder how much MS-NOW offered her?

There’s no way Karoline would agree to go anywhere where she’d have to compromise her principles.
Is she the hot one?
Probably a good gig for a mom.
They will set up a studio in her house. Just like they did for Sarah Palin.
Plus, IF she needs to fly to NYC she can be there in an hour or two from Boston, Portsmouth or Manchester.
She did a helluva job at the pressers for someone her age.

“There’s no way Karoline would agree to go anywhere where she’d have to compromise her principles.”
Fox is as compromised as CNN. Wake up and turn off that crap.
This is the most shocked I've been since Shepherd Smith came out as gay!
LOL!!!
Bravo!

Mind your own business. I’ll watch whatever I want.
Another Puritan speaks out. So who are YOU watching these days?
Just curious, what’s YOUR beef with Fox?
You don’t think that going to work for Fox isn’t a compromise?
Guess her kid wasn’t crazy about spending more time with her.

Jeez, in this thread I’m detecting distinct dislike for this young MAGA mother. That’s a mystery to me. Working her job in DC required long (and frequently irregular) hours and REQUIRED HER PRESENCE IN THE WHITE HOUSE. Her new job will allow her flexibility for when she will work and from where she’ll work.
I’m sure her two young children will like that arrangement and the additional time their mother will be with them.
The afternoon and evening hosts are pretty darned (not perfect) good, and my evening viewing is not complete without Gutfeld.
If the lefties could cancel Fox News, they would do so (and if they ever get complete control again, it sadly might happen.)
Good for her. She did a 4.0 job as press secretary.
