WHITE House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has shared a glimpse into her Easter weekend with her husband and baby boy.
Leavitt, 27, celebrated her son Niko’s first Easter with her husband, Nicholas Riccio, ahead of the White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday.
The couple, who were married in January, enjoyed the holiday weekend with a trip to the zoo as well as quality time with Leavitt’s family.
Leavitt shared a picture of Niko, who turns one in July, wearing a gingham shirt with carrots and chicks on it as he sat with an Easter basket with a plush bunny inside.
“First we prayed…,” Leavitt wrote, sharing a picture of her wearing a yellow dress and holding Niko at the Easter Sunday service at Passion City Church in Washington DC.
“And then, we played!” she added on the next post, showing her holding Niko alongside a person in an Easter Bunny costume.
Leavitt also shared pictures of Niko in a field of tulips before reposting her sister’s picture of her extended family.
The White House press secretary was seen smiling next to Riccio, 60, and holding Niko in front of the St. Regis hotel next to her parents, siblings, and their kids.
She also shared a picture on X of her and Niko at church on Sunday.
“Happy Easter, everyone! God is Good,” Leavitt wrote.
On Saturday, Leavitt posted pictures of her holding Niko at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute.
“Saturday well spent at the zoo,’ Leavitt wrote on Instagram.
Her colleagues shared sweet comments under the post.
“This is just the cutest thing ever,” wrote Kieghan Nangle, Leavitt’s executive assistant.
“Karoline!! This is so precious,” commented Kate DePetro, the assistant to Fox’s Dana Perino.
The holiday weekend comes weeks after Leavitt opened up about feeling “guilty” about spending time away from her son.
“I spend every second that I possibly can with my son when I’m home on weekends and evenings,” Leavitt told the Christian Broadcasting Network.
“I try to make it home for bedtime as much as I can throughout the week,” she added.
She admitted it’s difficult to balance her White House duties with being a new mom.
“I think every working mother understands the demands,” she said.
“No matter where you are, what you’re doing, there is a sense of guilt.”
