White House staffer Natalie Harp was photographed with a large red backpack during weekend events at Bedminster Golf Club and at the White House, prompting speculation about its contents.
President Donald Trump's aide Natalie Harp, 35, was observed carrying a large red backpack on several occasions over the weekend. The bag, identified as an Osprey model sold by a Utah-based company with retail prices starting around $300, was seen at the Bedminster Golf Club in New Jersey and later at the White House.
The presence of the backpack has led to online speculation about what it might contain. Harp, who has worked for Trump since 2019 and previously served on his 2020 campaign, is known for assisting the president with tasks such as printing articles and conducting online searches.
When asked about the bag, White House spokesperson Davis Ingle declined to comment on its contents and instead criticized media coverage of the story.
Harp has appeared in photographs with the president and his family at recent events, including a West Coast trip and the FIFA Club World Cup in July. According to reports, she earns an annual salary of $150,000 for her role in the White House.
The backpack has also been noted in a recent book about the Trump administration, which describes Harp's long-standing support for the president.
