On 'Fox & Friends', Lara Trump chimed in on Karoline Leavitt’s pregnancy. She said that she wanted to address some of the stories she had read and noted that the White House press secretary was not going anywhere.

Recalling Leavitt’s first pregnancy, Lara said that she did the same during Donald Trump’s campaign.

She said that Leavitt was pregnant, delivered her son, Niko, and was back to work within a "couple of days, on television, fighting to ensure that President Trump got elected."

Lara also said that everyone would be watching as Leavitt “schools fake news media” while eight or nine months pregnant.

She praised Leavitt for being “amazing,” adding that everyone at the White House loved babies. She also said that her father-in-law, Trump, loved babies, adding that he had fostered the most “pro-family” and “pro-child” environment in the White House. 

She added that back during the presidential election, people had their children around before Trump understood it was important for parents to spend time with their families, and also do their jobs.
