White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt Welcomes Baby No. 2 With Husband Nicholas Riccio

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has welcomed her second child. On Thursday, May 7, the 28-year-old took to X to announce the news as she shared a photo holding her newborn daughter, who was born just days earlier. “On May 1st, Viviana aka ‘Vivi’ joined our family, and our hearts instantly exploded with love. She is perfect and healthy, and her big brother is joyfully adjusting to life with his new baby sister. We are enjoying every moment in our blissful newborn bubble,” she wrote, adding, “Thank you to everyone who reached out with prayers during my pregnancy — I truly felt them throughout the entire experience. God is Good.” Leavitt first became a mom in July 2024 when she and husband Nicholas Riccio, 60, welcomed their son, Nicholas Robert Riccio, nicknamed “Niko.”
