The White House is getting a new family member … because White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is pregnant with her second child!

She announced she’s expecting a baby girl on social media Saturday as she stood aside her Christmas tree cradling her growing baby bump that was accentuated by a body-hugging sweater dress. She raved about the upcoming addition to her family in her post’s caption, writing … “My husband and I are thrilled to grow our family and can’t wait to watch our son become a big brother. My heart is overflowing with gratitude to God for the blessing of motherhood, which I truly believe is the closest thing to Heaven on Earth. 🥹”

She then thanked President Donald Trump and his Chief of Staff Susie Wiles for their support and for “fostering a pro-family environment in the White House.”

Karoline is already a proud mom to her son Niko, who was born in July 2024. She shares her children with her husband, real estate developer Nicholas Riccio.

Ashlee Buzzard — accused of killing her 9-year-old daughter Melodee Buzzard — has pleaded not guilty to the crime.

The 40-year-old entered her plea in a Santa Barbara, California courtroom Friday … and prosecutors confirmed they’d pursue a life sentence against Buzzard, but not the death penalty.

As you know … Ashlee was arrested for Melodee’s murder Tuesday after her daughter initially went missing in October.

Melodee and Ashlee were seen on security footage wearing wigs at a Santa Barbara car rental on October 7.

Melodee was last seen on camera with her mother near the Colorado-Utah border on October 9 … where the Chevrolet Malibu Ashlee rented was seen driving with New York plates. The original plates were restored when the car was returned the following day … but Melodee was not with her mother.

Family members have spoken to the media in the aftermath of the arrest … claiming she’s “extremely mentally unstable.”

Miley Cyrus‘ older sister Brandi Cyrus is engaged — meaning all three Cyrus sisters are getting ready to walk down the aisle!

Brandi, who is Tish Cyrus‘ oldest child and Billy Ray Cyrus‘ adopted daughter, announced the exciting news on Instagram Saturday with a photo of Matt Southcombe on one knee next to a motorcycle holding a ring box. Brandi gushed about their engagement in the caption, writing … “It’s been the craziest, biggest year of my life and I get to close it out saying YES to forever with my dream man.”

She continued … “I’m so thankful everyday that my flight got cancelled and I walked into this coffee shop one afternoon and found you. You’re my very best friend and everything I’ve spent my whole life looking for. I love you forever!!!”

As we mentioned, Brandi is the third and final Cyrus daughter to get engaged. The youngest sibling, Noah, got engaged to German fashion designer Pinkus in June 2023. And Miley said “yes” to musician Maxx Morando after 4 years of dating, confirming the news in early December.

It’s been a transformative few years for the Cyrus crew. As you know, Billy and Tish called it quits for good in April 2022, and they quickly moved on with their love lives. Billy asked singer Firerose to marry him in August of that year, confirming the news in November.

Tish got engaged to actor Dominic Purcell in November 2022, though they didn’t make it public until April 2023. They walked down the aisle in August 2023.
