A key development has taken place in US President Donald Trump’s administration. Trump announced on Wednesday that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt will step down from her position. However, he clarified that she will continue to serve as one of his senior advisers.Leavitt became the White House press secretary at the age of 28, making history as the youngest person ever to hold the position. She gained particular recognition for her combative style when dealing with journalists during press briefings and for her strong defense of Trump.

Reacting to the development on social media, Trump said, “Our incredible Press Secretary and one of my most trusted aides, Karoline Leavitt, will be stepping down at the end of this month to spend more time with her children and family. She will continue to serve as one of my chief advisers and as an influential voice in the Republican Party.”Leavitt also commented on her departure, saying, “I am grateful to the President for giving me the incredible opportunity to speak on his behalf. I enjoyed holding the liberal media accountable and delivering the truth about President Trump’s accomplishments to the American people.”Leavitt recently gave birth to her second child. Her decision to step down comes at a time when Trump’s approval ratings have been declining and amid expectations that the Republican Party could face challenges in the November midterm elections.
