Katie Miller, the spokeswoman for Vice President Mike Pence and the White House coronavirus task force, announced on Twitter Tuesday that she returned to work after a bout of COVID-19 and that she is pregnant.

“Back at work today after three NEGATIVE COVID tests. Thank you to all my amazing doctors and everyone who reached out with support. I couldn’t have done it without my amazing husband who took great care of his pregnant wife. #TransitionToGreatness,” Miller posted.

Miller, who is married to top White House adviser Stephen Miller, tested positive for the coronavirus on May 8.

Earlier the same week, a military valet for President Trump was diagnosed with the disease — the first case inside the White House.

Miller, 25, often sat close to the president during the task force briefings.

“She’s a wonderful young woman, Katie, she tested very good for a long period of time, then all of a sudden today she tested positive,” Trump told reporters after news broke that Miller had coronavirus, saying he wasn’t worried. “She hasn’t come into contact with me. She’s spent some time with the vice president.”

Her diagnosis led more White House staffers and reporters to wear masks.

The White House also tracked people with whom Miller came in contact before getting sick.
