White House Press Secretary Slammed After People Spot Small Detail In This Photo She Shared
White House Press Secretary Criticized for Luxury Bag After Remarks About France.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sparked online debate after sharing an Instagram photo featuring a Louis Vuitton handbag, just days after making controversial comments about France. The $2,000 designer bag—a well-known French brand—stood out to many, especially given the timing.
Leavitt had recently responded to a French politician who suggested the U.S. should return the Statue of Liberty, stating:
“It’s only because of the United States that the French aren’t speaking German.”
The comment drew mixed reactions online. Some applauded her for defending American history, while others saw it as unnecessarily harsh. The photo that followed, showing her with a French luxury accessory, added fuel to the fire. Critics called it ironic, with one asking, “Why wear Louis Vuitton if you’re slamming France?”
Despite the backlash, others praised her appearance and professionalism, describing her as “stunning” and “graceful.” At 27, Leavitt is the youngest Press Secretary in U.S. history, and she’s managing the pressure in the public eye while raising a young son.
Instead of addressing the controversy directly, Leavitt shifted the focus to her personal life—sharing heartwarming weekend photos with her son and great-grandmother. The debate continues online, but Leavitt appears focused and steady, balancing her high-profile job with motherhood and grace.
