Katie Miller pauses podcast after husband named White House chief of staff

After Stephen Miller was selected as White House chief of staff, his wife, conservative influencer Katie Miller, said she is stepping back from her podcast on Sunday.

“I make every decision based on what’s best for my children and our family. With @StephenM taking on this new role for President Trump, I’ve decided to stop recording new podcast episodes,” Miller said in a post to the social platform X .

“Nothing is more important than raising our four kids. While I’ve loved the podcast, the time commitment is too great and now is the time to step away. I’ll be cheering President Trump and his team on from outside the administration,” she continued

Miller added that she “will be airing the two previously taped episodes” of The Katie Miller Podcast.

Miller’s podcast launched in 2025, and guests have included right-leaning figures like Elon Musk and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The most recent episode of the podcast was released on Oct. 27 .

Trump announced on Friday that chief of staff Susie Wiles was leaving the White House and Stephen Miller, a longtime adviser to the president, would take her place.

Stephen Miller’s promotion followed a shellacking for Republicans on Election Day last week, with Democrats seizing the House and Senate.

“I am pleased to announce that Mr. Stephen Miller, the current Deputy Chief of Staff of the Trump Administration, and one of my most trusted advisors, will become the Chief of Staff starting Monday, November 9, 2026,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Susie Wiles, who has done an outstanding job, will be moving over to the Trump Political Operation,” he continued. “I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff — She has done a great job!”
