Katie Miller Defends Husband Stephen Miller Against 'Human Shield' Claims at White House Correspondents' Dinner

Katie Miller is pushing back against criticism of her husband Stephen Miller after photos from Saturday's White House Correspondents' Dinner evacuation went viral. The images appeared to show Miller positioning himself behind his pregnant wife during an alleged assassination attempt at the April 25 event.

Katie Miller, who is about eight months pregnant with their fourth child, said her husband was protecting both her and their unborn baby. She addressed viral comments about the positioning in the evacuation photos, explaining that what people interpreted as inappropriate behavior was actually her husband shielding them.

Social media users had criticized the images, with some writing comments like "Stephen Miller uses his pregnant wife as a human shield" and "I can't get over Stephen Miller using his pregnant wife Katie as a shield during the WHCD incident."

Katie Miller clarified that her husband "was behind me and protecting me" during the evacuation. She wanted to make clear that despite how the photos looked, Stephen Miller was not hiding behind her but rather positioning himself to guard his family during the security incident.
