Alina Habba, a top ally and former lawyer for President-elect Donald Trump, revealed Tuesday that she would “very seriously” consider an opportunity to serve as his White House press secretary.
Habba, 40, was asked multiple times by Fox News host Sean Hannity about a report suggesting that she is “the favorite” for the role and did not rule out the possibility of serving in the incoming administration.
“I leave it to the president and the three people that are on my board of directors – that’s Luke, Chloe and Parker, my children. Everybody will know in time,” she said.
Habba refused to say whether she’s had any discussions with the Trump-Vance transition team about becoming White House press secretary while praising the “amazing Cabinet” the president-elect is putting together from his Palm Beach, Fla., transition headquarters.
When pressed by the Fox News host, Habba hinted at interest in handling the daily White House press briefings or serving in the Trump administration in some other capacity
“I am very loyal to President Trump. I would think about it very seriously,” she said.
