A recent White House press gaggle took an unexpected turn when Karoline Leavitt’s sleek green dress stole the spotlight. The form-fitting design, complete with a leg-baring slit, sparked heated debates online about professionalism and personal style in politics.
Detractors called the look “distracting” for her official role, while supporters countered that women in power shouldn’t be policed for fashion choices that would go unnoticed on male colleagues. Leavitt, for her part, brushed off the noise—she’s faced scrutiny before, particularly over her marriage to Nicholas Riccio, a businessman 32 years her senior.
The couple, who tied the knot after meeting during her campaign days, are proud parents to a young son. Leavitt often shares heartwarming family snapshots, showing a softer side to the poised political figure. Whether posting throwback wedding photos or recent moments with their little boy, she makes it clear that her focus remains on her family and career—not internet fashion critics.
