Lara Trump now official Fox News contributor

Lara Trump has joined Fox News as a contributor, the network announced Monday morning on its morning show “Fox & Friends.”

“Let’s bring in Lara Trump, former senior adviser for the Trump campaign, and we have a big announcement. She is a new Fox News contributor. Welcome to the family, Lara,” said host Ainsley Earhardt.

Trump has been a frequent guest on “Fox & Friends” as well as other Fox News shows.

“Well, I’m so excited, first of all, to be joining the Fox family, I sort of feel like I’ve been an unofficial member of the team for so long,” Trump said after the announcement. “You guys know it was kind of a joke over the past five years, I would come there so often that the security guards were like, maybe we should just give you a key.”

In addition to advising her father-in-law’s campaign, Trump is also considering a run for U.S. Senate in North Carolina.
