One of the journalists identified this week as an alleged recipient of a classified leak from a Defense Intelligence Agency worker had an adorable on-air moment that same day — as her 4-year-old son wandered onto the set during a live broadcast.

NBC News correspondent Courtney Kube, who covers national security and the Pentagon, was reporting on Turkey’s invasion of Syria for MSNBC Wednesday morning when her son nonchalantly approached and tapped her.

“Excuse me, my kids are here, live television,” Kube said, smiling as she gently moved her son aside and a map of Syria and Turkey appeared on the screen.

Reporter Amanda Macias, who covers national security for CNBC, praised her colleague later that morning.

“Proof that @ckubeNBC is the hardest working mom in the Pentagon press corps and all the while consistently breaks news. Goals,” she wrote, retweeting the MSNBC clip.

Meanwhile, Kube and Macias were revealed to be the two reporters with whom alleged leaker Henry Kyle Frese, 30, shared secrets.

The Wall Street Journal was the first to identify the pair, who are not named in the indictment against Frese.

Frese, a counterintelligence analyst from Alexandria, Virginia, who had a Top Secret security clearance, was indicted Tuesday on two counts of willful transmission of national defense information to persons not entitled to receive it.

“Frese was caught red-handed disclosing sensitive national security information for personal gain,” John C. Demers, assistant attorney general for national security, said when announcing the indictment.

Kube’s heartwarming moment with her son calls to mind a viral 2017 incident when a professor’s two children crashed his on-air BBC interview about South Korea.
