Karoline Leavitt Can't Escape Lip Filler Rumors In Side-By-Side Photos
Besides being accused of dressing like an octogenarian, Karoline Leavitt also has to deal with plastic surgery rumors surrounding her lips, which are getting so puffy that it's giving Kristi Noem. The New Hampshire native may want to think about deleting old photos of herself from Instagram that were posted prior to her becoming the White House press secretary — because her lips look way different five years ago than they do today.
"Filler was NOT the move, mama. You still look like this but now you have pillow face AND there's infinite up-close televised proof," one person commented on a throwback photo of the Gen Zer. In that snapshot, Leavitt's lips were noticeably thinner and looked much more natural.
That remark isn't an outlier online. In an Instagram post from March 2025 that featured Leavitt wearing what appear to be clothes she borrowed from a senior living facility, someone snarkily wrote, "Omgggg congratulations on your 50th birthday, what's your gift??? Lip fillers???" Leavitt better buck up, because these cosmetic surgery rumors aren't going to disappear anytime soon, especially when she makes her try-hard pout that has constituents wondering if it's fillers or duck lips.
She's well on her way to getting Mar-A-Lago face
Like so many women in President Donald Trump's administration, it seems that Karoline Leavitt is en route to joining the "Mar-A-Lago face" club. This unofficial group includes the people, mostly women, whose faces have seemingly changed since they entered Trump's orbit. The short list includes Kimberly Guilfoyle, who looked so different before getting plastic surgery, as well as Kristi Noem, the Secretary of Homeland Security. Even POTUS's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, made the cut, having gone through quite a transformation.
What's included to join the Mar-A-Lago face group? For starters, plastic surgery is a biggie, especially involving Botox and fillers. Over-the-top makeup is another major attribute. Products need to be caked on and (unfortunately) don't always match a person's skin tone.
Besides looking like she got lip fillers, Leavitt seems to be in the excessive makeup phase right now. Her overdone makeup has her looking almost as old as her husband — which is really saying something, since she and Nicholas Riccio have quite the age gap.
