A Trump administration official said their British counterparts spoke in general terms because the presence of Jennifer made them uneasy. They later had a smaller, more detailed meeting without her.<\/p>\n<p>One insider told the newspaper that Hegseth likes having Jennifer around to keep him on the straight and narrow. The former Fox News host faced an uphill battle in the run-up to his confirmation, due in large part to concerns about his history of heavy drinking. <\/p>\n<p>Jennifer is also said to have interviewed potential Pentagon staffers. <\/p>\n<p>John Ullyot, the former Pentagon chief spokesperson who resigned after just three months, recalled that Jennifer once called him in. Ullyot expected a pleasant meet-and-greet but said he instead got a barrage of \u201cunexpectedly detailed and hard-edged questions\u201d for about 40 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5730\">Trumpy Nut Who\u2019s Giving ICE Electric Shock Gloves Is Exposed<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s bonkers that a defense secretary would involve his wife in his sensitive official duties, including sharing details of an impending military operation, and face zero consequences,\u201d Ullyot told The Times. \u201cAny president deserves better judgment from his national security leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pentagon spokesperson Joel Valdez lashed out at Ullyot in a statement to the Daily Beast, saying the former staffer is \u201cacting like a crazy ex.\u201d Valdez noted that Ullyot had also been \u201cexiled from the MAGA movement by Donald Trump Jr.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>In a statement to The Times, Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell described Jennifer as \u201can accomplished leader in her own right and a devoted military spouse.\u201d The Defense Department, he added, \u201cnot only welcomes her current leadership but actively plans to involve her even more deeply in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer majored in journalism and spent 18 years as an executive producer at Fox News. Her relationship with Hegseth started out as an affair in 2016, when they were both still married to other people.
