White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is only 27 years old, and a whopping 32 years younger than Leavitt’s decades-older husband, Nicholas Riccio,
whom she married in January 2025, a mere six months after the happy couple welcomed their son, Nico.
The significant age gap has raised eyebrows, as did the fact that the wedding took place after Leavitt had a baby out of wedlock.
“Karoline Leavitt — pregnant before marriage, engaged in December 2023, had a baby in July 2024, and married a rich man 30+ years older than her.
Constantly lectures the country about Christian values and the dangers of immorality,” one critic penned on Facebook. Interestingly enough, though, it’s not just the public that has reservations about Leavitt and Riccio’s age gap.
