Karoline Leavitt can call herself whatever she wants, but it doesn’t mean she’s acting like a righteous woman … so says the mother of her nephew and godson, who was detained last month.

Bruna Caroline Ferreira appeared on Erin Burnett‘s CNN show Friday … and, she laid into the White House press secretary — telling Erin she’d want to tell Karoline, “Just because you went to a Catholic school doesn’t make you a good Catholic.”

She added, “You are a mother now. How would you feel if you were … in my shoes?” Karoline and her husband, Nicholas Riccio, welcomed their first child together in July 2024.

Ferreira also notes she and Michael Leavitt — Karoline’s brother — chose KL to be her son’s godmother instead of her own sister … almost certainly deepening feelings of betrayal.

As you know … Ferreira was arrested near Boston in mid-November — and, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson told us Ferreira, who is from Brazil,  entered the U.S. on a B2 tourist visa that required her to leave the U.S. by June 6, 1999.

DHS also alleged she had a prior arrest for battery … and reaffirmed the administration’s commitment to deporting all people in the country illegally.

Video captured Bruna leaving her driveway … when five unmarked cars blocked her path, removed her from the car and walked her away in handcuffs.

Ferreira and Leavitt’s son reportedly lives with him full-time. Her attorney, Todd Pomerleau, told us, “Bruna had no problem whatsoever with the Leavitt family. Karoline is her son’s godmother, chosen over her own sister, and Michael Sr. is a very good father. Bruna was en route to pick up her son Michael Jr. after school like she did several days a week. He lived with her till kindergarten, but now awaits for his mother’s warm embrace.”

Multiple people at Brown University have reportedly been injured during an active shooting situation.

The university shared news of the shooting Saturday afternoon … updating students and members of the community that an active shooter was near the Barus and Holley Building on the east side of the campus.

One suspect is in custody, according to university officials … though they still recommend those on campus stay quiet and lock themselves inside buildings if possible.

Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente aren’t sipping cocoa and warming by the fire this holiday season … they’re enjoying the sun and surf off the coast of Florida.

The happy couple hopped on jet skis and carved up the clear water near their home in Surfside, FL … life jackets and sunglasses on as they whipped around the area.

Bündchen showed off those long, supermodel legs of hers … strengthened by all that jiu jitsu she’s practiced with her beau of more than 2 years.

It’s been a milestone year for the GB and JV … who welcomed their first child together back in February — a son whose name and face the couple’s keeping under wraps.

Gisele’s wrapping up her busy year with tons of hours by the water … taking part in a photoshoot earlier this week while showing off her toned bod in a cheeky one-piece bathing suit.

She was posing as a sexy surfer … though, with the amount of jet skiing we’ve seen her do over the years, we’d guess extreme watersports are more her vibe.
