Who is Kayleigh McEnany?

Born under the sign of Aries on the 18^th of April 1988. in Tampa, Florida USA, Kayleigh McEnany is a 30-year-old Caucasian political commentator, writer and producer, perhaps best known to the world for being a significant screen presence as a CNN contributor, as well as the national spokesperson for the Republican National Committee. She has also had a number of other successes in the media in her sometimes lucrative political commentating career over the last decade.

Early Life: Growing Up in Tampa

Kayleigh was raised an only child in her birthplace by parents of unknown identities and professions. It is unknown when she took an interest in what she does today, as well as any of her childhood hobbies. As for her education, she attended a private Catholic college preparatory school for girls which is co-educational up until the eighth grade, named Academy of the Holy Names in western Florida. After her matriculation in 2006, Kayleigh first enrolled at Georgetown University School of Foreign Service in Washington D.C., from where she graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Foreign Service degree in international politics. Aside from that, she also spent a year studying at a constituent college of the University of Oxford, St Edmund Hall in England. Later on, she also studied at the University of Miami School of Law, prior to transferring to Harvard Law School, from where she graduated with a Juris Doctor degree in May 2017.

Career: From a Producer to a Spokesperson

After she graduated from Georgetown University, even though she was still pursuing her education, Kayleigh produced a single episode of Mike Huckabee’s talk show entitled “Huckabee” in 2012. After that, she interned for a few politicians, such as Adam Putnam, George W. Bush and Tom Gallagher, and was active in George W. Bush’s campaign in 2004, and also in the White House Office of Communications in the Media Affairs department. She started co-hosting CNN’s political talk show entitled “The Point” too, remaining in this position until August 5^th 2017, when she tweeted that she would be leaving CNN for another offer.

On August 6^th, she made her appearance as the “Real News Update” host, which is a news show on Donald Trump’s Facebook page. Kayleigh is also a well-known Trump supporter, who has defended his views in multiple talk shows, and thus earned herself something of an infamous reputation among anti-Trump viewers. The next day, the Republican National Committee made a public announcement, stating that Kayleigh was now their national spokesperson for television and radio, and she remains in that position today. In early January 2018, she released her first book, entitled “The New American Revolution: The Making of a Populist Movement.”

Love Life: Married to Sean Gilmartin

Kayleigh met the baseball pitcher Sean Gilmartin back in 2015, in New York through mutual friends. At the time, Gilmartin was pitching for the Mets while Kayleigh was interning for a law firm. When asked about their encounter, he stated: ‘Iremember when I first met her, I kind of recognized her name from watching Fox News,” Gilmartin said. “She did a little on-air stuff and worked as a producer for Sean Hannity and Mike Huckabee before pursuing her law degree. She was interning at the law firm and I was making dinner at my apartment in New York and we were supposed to have dinner together.” They became engaged in 2016, and married in November 2017.
