Former White House press secretary Katie Zacharia, whom US President Donald Trump fired seven days into the job, has shown her athletic figure to her followers. She posted the photo on her Instagram page, infohub.kz reports.
The 42-year-old Zacharia posed sitting on a bicycle. For the photo she chose a light blue crop top and black cycling shorts. She also wore a helmet, glasses and gloves.
Zacharia is known as a former White House press secretary. She was given the post on October 9 and held her first briefing on October 13.
The briefing lasted just 14 minutes, during which she answered questions from three journalists. The appearance was marked by slip-ups and also raised questions about her professional qualifications.
Later, in an interview with Fox News, Zacharia admitted that she had not passed the qualifying exam and did not hold a license to practice law in the United States. Trump had previously presented her as a lawyer.
Before her appointment, she worked as senior communications adviser at Trump Media & Technology Group, which runs the Truth Social network. Zacharia had also previously served for about six weeks as a representative of the US Department of Homeland Security.
She later wrote on X that it had been an honor to work for Donald Trump and expressed her support for the president.
A week after the appointment, it emerged that Katie Zacharia was leaving the post. A White House representative confirmed that she was "transitioning to the end of her work in this position."
Donald Trump said he had advised Zacharia to reconsider her decision to work in the post. "You don't have to do this if you don't want to... I think you should reconsider your decision," he was quoted as saying to the press secretary.
