Jen Psakihas become a welcome face in the Briefing Room since becoming the White House Press Secretary.
But what about her life outside of the White House?
Well, as it turns out, Psaki’s personal life is also deeply tied to American politics.
He began his political career while at the university before starting an internship with Kentucky Congressman Ken Lucas.
So how did Psaki and Mecher initially cross paths?
The couple eventually met face to face, and Mecher immediately thought Psaki was “cute.”
“I actually got really nervous,” Mecher said (viaWashington Post).
“Which was really weird.
I was 30 years old.
I’ve asked a few girls out before.
I’ve never been nervous about it in my life.”
Their dating life soon picked up, and they quickly became serious.
“I felt very comfortable, Psaki told the Post.
“We got along very well, and our personalities meshed very well.”
Mecher then proposed in March 2009, and the couple were married three months later.
“We got together and got along very well and it just sort of worked.
And it was good.”
Psaki and Mecher have two children, a five-year-old daughter and two-year-old son (viaPopSugar).
