There Are So Many Weird Things About Stephen Miller's Marriage

Stephen Miller and his wife, Katie Miller, were seemingly eager to join the list of weird couples in Donald Trump's inner circle. The president's top domestic policy adviser and the former communications director for Mike Pence have proved they aren't afraid to discuss the strange aspects of their relationship. In fact, Stephen's wife all but confirmed their marriage is as dull and weird as it seems. That became clear as day when she shared their morning ritual in an interview.

While most couples deem a loving morning greeting to be like, "Good morning, love, did you sleep well?" or any other iteration of a similar sentiment, that's not Katie. What brightens her up first thing is her husband's sweet nothings about his boss. "He is an incredibly inspiring man who gets me going in the morning with his speeches being like, 'Let's start the day, I am going to defeat the left, and we are going to win," she said on "Jesse Watters Primetime" in September 2025. "He wakes up the day ready to carry out the mission that President Trump was elected to do."

Interestingly, Katie's comment came after she poked fun at Watters for dubbing her husband a "sexual matador" in a 2024 interview. But Stephen didn't think Watters was joking, having proceeded to give dating advice. "The best thing you can do is wear your Trump support on your sleeve. Show that you are a real man," he said on "Jesse Watters Primetime." Stephen may have undergone a jarring hair transformation, but it clearly hasn't affected his ego.

Stephen and Katie Miller said their "I dos" at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., in February 2020, proving that Donald Trump has been living rent-free in the Millers' heads from the very beginning. On their first wedding anniversary, both Stephen and Katie included Trump in their social media celebrations of the special day. In his Instagram post, Stephen shared a photo that showed the president in focus at the center while his and his bride's blurred outlines framed him. 

Similarly, Katie included one that featured the flower girl hugging Trump's legs in her own Instagram post. The Millers' wedding was nothing short of extravagant, with a host of high-profile political figures among the 250 guests in attendance and topped with an Elvis impersonator. But that's not what Katie wanted. "I didn't want a big wedding; I wanted the courthouse," she said on "The Katie Miller Podcast" in August 2025.

However, Stephen wanted the whole shebang. "My husband wanted the big wedding, so I did it. He's the bridezilla," she told her guest, former "SportsCenter" co-host Sage Steele. And she not only acquiesced, but also agreed to be the one to plan it. "I said, 'Fine, I'll plan your dream wedding, but I'm doing it in three months,'" she explained. How exactly giving herself a tight timeline to plan an intricate wedding acted as a mitigating factor in her favor is unclear to us, but more power to her for accomplishing the self-imposed task.

When Stephen Miller and Katie Miller's home was targeted by protestors, the couple decided to take extreme measures to counteract the protests. In October 2025, local publication ARLNow reported that activists were leaving messages in chalk outside the couple's home in Arlington, Virginia. Some of the messages included "hate has no home in Arlington," "Stephen Miller is destroying democracy," and "no white nationalism." This led the White House deputy chief of staff and his wife to pack up and move their family elsewhere. A couple of weeks later, The Atlantic reported that the Millers wanted additional security, so they had relocated to a military base. They were not alone, as fellow Trump administration members Marco Rubio and Kristi Noem had also taken up residence in military lodgings.

According to Katie, the impact of the activists reached far beyond chalk messages and included harassment. "There were people who sent us death threats who knew where we lived, and it was no longer safe for our children to play in our front yard," she said on the "Ruthless" podcast on November 14 — just a few weeks after the news of the Millers moving to a military base was published. Katie added that if the couple didn't have kids, they would have toughed it out in the Arlington home.

Around the same time that Stephen Miller and Katie Miller put their Arlington, Virginia, home on the market, the pair were savagely trolled online. A clip was shared on X of the couple taking their kids trick-or-treating at the White House as Donald Trump and Melania Trump handed out candy to the youngsters. Katie held her son in her arms and matched him in a skeleton shirt, but Stephen left his costume at home. "Katie is dressed as a skeleton and Stephen Miller is dressed as himself, which is even more scary," an X user cheekily wrote alongside the footage.

It was not the first or last time detractors would bash Stephen in a post. In June 2025, Katie uploaded an Instagram carousel that included snaps of the family taking in a historic military parade in Washington. "Why do u have a picture with the devil," one user asked, referring to Katie's husband. "I would sleep with Elon too if I had that next to me," another wrote — this was around the time that Katie left the White House to work for Elon Musk.

Katie was given similar online treatment when she posted photos from the Easter Egg Roll at the White House to Instagram in April 2025. She sported a pink dress for the occasion, while Stephen wore a baby blue shirt underneath his gray suit. The comments were flooded with Instagram users voicing their displeasure with Katie's choice of partner. "U actually procreated with him," one asked. "Katie Miller: the only person who thought Stephen deserved a plus-one," another commented.
