Karoline Leavitt, the youngest White House press secretary at 27, is connected to former President George W. Bush through her husband, Nicholas Riccio. In 2005, Riccio spoke with Bush about owning a sports team during a town hall meeting. Despite his conversation with Bush, Riccio has not owned a sports team. He runs a successful real estate business, Riccio Enterprises, LLC, which focuses on property renovations in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. Leavitt and Riccio, who married in early 2024, welcomed their son Niko in July. While Leavitt is active on social media, Riccio prefers privacy and avoids the spotlight.
