Former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre gave Americans a look behind the podium in a telling Vanity Fair piece published on Tuesday.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre replaced her predecessor Jen Psaki in May 2022 and held her final official press briefing on Wednesday.

Jean-Pierre arrived at the White House after a breakfast honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., ready to work with Biden on the farewell speech he planned to deliver to the public later that afternoon.

Karine Jean-Pierre spoke to The Advocate about being press secretary under President Joe Biden, living and working proud and out, and what she plans to do now.

I have kept details about my private life under lock and key,” she writes for Vanity Fair. “Society doesn’t allow women of color to be vulnerable at work.”

Leavitt can claim a first of her own — at age 27, she is the youngest White House press secretary in history — though she hopes to become better known for her ability to speak for and defend the Trump administration.

Karoline Leavitt is the new White House press secretary under President Donald Trump. Here's what to know about her and why she is making history.

Karoline Leavitt hosted the first White House press briefing of the second Trump administration on Tuesday and impressed some fellow Republican’s. The briefing turned into a contentious environment a few times but the youngest ever White House press secretary was able to make her way through it.

Karine Jean-Pierre shared in a heartbreaking essay this week that she had a “second full-time job” while serving as White House press secretary: caring for her mother, who has cancer. She wrote in Vanity Fair that she visited her mom in New York every weekend for 18 months while maintaining a secret she kept from even her workmates.

When Leavitt, 27, walks out into the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room on Tuesday, she'll be the youngest press secretary to do so, since Ronald Ziegler, who held the title in former President Ronald Reagan's White House at age 29.
