She has drawn public attention for her constant presence alongside U.S. President Trump.
On Thursday, the media outlet MS Now reported that Natalie Harp, U.S. President Donald Trump’s closest adviser, worked at the White House for a year without a security clearance.

Harp came into the media spotlight on Sunday when Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff, considered one of the potential presidential candidates, said Trump “doesn’t want to do the job” because what he wants is to “build his ballroom and travel with Natalie in his apparently defenseless flying palace, gifted by the emir of Qatar.”
With this statement, Ossoff was echoing reports that revealed that Harp, a 35-year-old former television host, was one of the few people who traveled with Trump on the secret flight that left Türkiye following the NATO summit in July because of an alleged threat of an attack by Iran.
White House Spokesperson Davis Ingle accused senator Ossoff of being a “pathetic, effeminate theater kid pretending to be Barack Obama” and a “small-time loser.”
In an interview with MS Now, Ossoff responded to these comments and said that “it has been incredible to watch the White House unravel over all of this throughout the week.”
La nuova “stella” di Donald Trump è la sua assistente 35enne Natalie Harp. Che lo accompagna nei viaggi più importanti e al golf club, mentre scrive sotto dettatura i post del presidente sui social. E ha sempre con sé una stampante portatile per consegnare informazioni e notizie… pic.twitter.com/gQbDfqp6tk

The text reads, “Donald Trump’s new ‘star’ is his 35-year-old assistant, Natalie Harp. She accompanies him on his most important trips and to the golf club, in addition to dictating the president’s social media posts. She always carries a portable printer to print copies of information and news that might be of interest to her boss. Harp was also with him during the secret aircraft swap in Turkey, following intelligence reports of an Iranian threat directed at the White House occupant. In 2023, Harp sent Trump letters of admiration with phrases like, ‘You are all that matters to me. I never want to let you down. I want to make you happy.’ That same year, to stay close to the tycoon during the election campaign, she slept an entire summer in the women’s locker room at Trump’s golf club in Bedminster, after being denied a room. Now, however, she has access to the Oval Office and writes the U.S. president’s messages against political adversaries and (former) international allies directly online.”
The exchange of statements has sparked curiosity among the American public about Natalie Harp, an adviser who appears to rarely leave the president’s side.
Raised in a Christian California family, Harp has become a key figure in Trump’s daily life. She accompanies him everywhere and is known as “the human printer” because she always carries a portable printer to give the president printed copies of publications that may interest him.
After completing her university studies, Harp worked as a television host but left her career to become Trump’s assistant in 2022.
Her presence is believed to raise concerns among many at the White House, not only because of her physical proximity, which has sparked all kinds of rumors, but also because of her ability to influence Trump by serving as a filter for the information that reaches him.
