However, just because her ascent to news stardom was relatively fast, doesn’t mean it was easy.
We are talking about a woman who came onto the political circuit during the first Trump administration after all.
She has seen her fair share of praise and criticism, and has weathered a few storms and scandals.
Through it all, however, she remains one of the most well respected young journalists in her field.
One of five children, Collins was born in Prattville, Alabama, in 1992.
And what does the Alabama native miss the most?
The food, of course.
“When I’m going home for a week of gluttony, I know I have to prepare myself.
One glass of sweet tea will send me over the edge these days.”
From relationships to rehab, if it was happening in Hollywood, it was covered by Collins.
“I think I learned a lot from that job,” Collins said.
Being a White House correspondent during Donald Trump’s administration, however, was something else entirely.
When the Daily Caller appointed Kaitlan Collins their White House correspondent in early 2017, she learned this firsthand.
“I never even thought about not covering every minute of him.”
Her commitment paid off, landing Collins a guest spot that would ultimately change her career.
Maybe it was also her good Southern manners.
Her star was officially on the rise.
I regret it and apologize."
It’s an intense environment, but one where Collins thrived.
She was named the web link’s youngest chief White House correspondent in 2021.
The new role wasn’t the only thing Collins had to get used to.
“All I knew was Trump, so I’m in for this whole new reality.”
“She was certainly not angling for anything.
She was very happy doing what she was doing, and doing it well.”
Although the job entailed relocating to New York from Washington, the decision was a no-brainer for Collins.
She told The Washington Post,“I didn’t even think of saying no.”
“And I realized that early on.
If you’re a reporter who cares about reporting, that’s what you want.”
This event took place just one day after a jury awarded columnistE.
Jean Carroll $5 million in her sexual abuse case against Trump.
“It’s not like he wouldn’t have airtime.”
She is a hard-hitting journalist who can hold her own in any situation.
But that doesn’t mean relinquishing control of the narrative.
That’s what makes her primed for great success.
For the most part, Collins' love life sure seems to fly under the radar.
But are they still an item?
As of this writing, their relationship status remains a mystery.
What’s more, they do not follow each other on Instagram.
