While Sean Spicer is headed for the new season of “Dancing with the Stars,” the woman who replaced him is also headed to TV.
Former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is joining Fox News as a contributor, where she will provide political commentary and analysis on all of the Fox platforms, the network announced Thursday.
She will make her first appearance Sept. 6 on “Fox & Friends.”
Sanders left the White House in June after assuming the role in July 2017. Her tenure was marked by a strained relationship with the press and fewer daily press briefings.
Spicer was the first press secretary for the Trump administration. Stephanie Grisham is the current occupant.
She is the daughter of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, who is also a Fox contributor. Rumors had circulated of a possible run for governor in her home state.
Excited to join @FoxNews as a contributor, looking forward to being with the @foxandfriends team for my first hit on September 6th. https://t.co/Jb2HCFc1aM
