“My advice to that unnamed low-level French politician would be to remind them that it’s only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now, so they should be very grateful to our great country.”
Her words sparked widespread reactions online, drawing both support and criticism. But it wasn’t just her comment that got people talking—it was what she wore in a photo posted to Instagram.
Luxury Handbag Draws Mixed Reactions
In the photo, Leavitt is seen holding a Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM tote, a handbag from the well-known French luxury brand, priced at around $2,030. This led to some followers pointing out what they saw as a contradiction between her remarks about France and her choice of accessory.
One commenter asked, “Why have a Louis Vuitton bag if everything from France is so bad?”
Despite the criticism, many others praised her appearance and professionalism.
“Absolutely stunning representation of our country!” one supporter wrote. Another added, “It’s good to see such professionalism in action.”

Balancing Public Life and Family
At just 27, Leavitt is the youngest person to ever serve as White House Press Secretary. Though her age has been a topic of debate among critics, she seems to maintain focus on both her professional duties and personal life.
Instead of responding to the buzz online, Leavitt shared heartwarming moments from her weekend with her young son. In one post, she captioned a photo, “Sunday morning muffins with my sous chef,” showing her toddler helping in the kitchen. Another featured a family stroll, writing, “Niko being pushed by his great grandma!”
While social media continues to discuss fashion and politics, Leavitt appears to remain grounded in both her work and her role as a mother.
