Her seriousness and quick answers impressed the press, but her husband’s age increased people’s curiosity further.
A user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Watched a few minutes of the White House press briefing and the new press secretary karoline leavitt only 27? (She looks 40!) But she is very sharp and knows how to cleverly avoid questions.”
How did karoline leavitt and Nicholas meet?

The relationship of the two remained private for a long time, but in 2023, they announced their engagement on the occasion of Christmas.
