White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made a rare public appearance with her family on Monday during the 2025 Easter Egg Roll, turning heads in a stunning pastel look while enjoying the festivities on the South Lawn.
The 27-year-old Press Secretary was joined by her husband, Nicholas Riccio, and their nine-month-old son, Nico, for the annual celebration hosted by President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.
While Leavitt is frequently seen behind the White House podium, she’s rarely spotted with her 59-year-old husband — making this outing a special exception.
A Stylish Springtime Debut for Mom and Baby
Leavitt fully embraced the Easter spirit with a spring-forward ensemble. She wore a baby-blue lace dress from popular designer Self-Portrait, known for its delicate detailing and structured silhouettes.
The elegant frock featured a square neckline, bedazzled buttons, sparkling accents on the pockets, and a thin matching belt that added a tailored finish. Though the exact piece is no longer available, similar styles from the label retail upwards of $600.
She completed the look with navy blue ballet flats, a small diamond cross necklace, and her signature soft curls, with tendrils framing her face.
Her son Nico, born in July 2024, was dressed in an adorable baby-blue outfit to match his mom. Riccio, meanwhile, opted for a tan-colored suit and a light purple tie, exuding a youthful charm as he pushed Nico in a stroller around the lawn.
White House Easter Tradition with a Fresh Twist
This year’s Easter Egg Roll maintained its beloved traditions while adding some fresh updates. In a move away from plastic eggs, President Trump chose to incorporate real eggs donated by American egg farmers — a nod to sustainability and U.S. agriculture.
The event, which drew thousands of guests, featured family-friendly attractions such as an egg hunt, cookie decorating, and interactive stations, including the Be Best Hopscotch, Bunny Tunnel, and a Reading Nook sponsored by Amazon.
Leavitt took a moment to speak to reporters outside the White House while wearing her standout Easter look, adding a touch of personal flair to her professional persona.
A Family Moment Shared with Fans
Leavitt also gave followers a behind-the-scenes look at her holiday on Instagram Stories, sharing sweet snaps of baby Nico playing with the Easter Bunny — a picture-perfect moment from a memorable day on the South Lawn.
With her blend of professionalism, maternal warmth, and sharp fashion sense, Karoline Leavitt once again proved she’s a standout presence in the political spotlight — and in the Easter crowd.
