Press Secretary Faces Backlash
Karoline Leavitt Faces Fashion Backlash
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sparked debate after
posting an Instagram photo showing her with a Louis Vuitton tote—days after criticizing France.
Criticism Over French Brand
Leavitt recently responded to a French politician who suggested returning the Statue of Liberty, saying,
“It’s only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now.”
Critics quickly noticed her $2,030 Louis Vuitton bag, with one commenting,
“Why have a Louis Vuitton bag if everything from France is so bad????”
Support and Family Focus
Many defended her, with one follower writing, “Absolutely stunning representation of our country!”
At 27, Leavitt is the youngest White House Press Secretary in history.

Ignoring the online backlash, she spent the weekend with her son, sharing,
“Sunday morning muffins with my sous chef,” and a photo captioned, “Niko being pushed by his great grandma!”
