In a political landscape often rife with intrigue, the recent departure of Stephen Miller‘s wife, Katie Miller, from the White House to work full-time for Elon Musk has ignited a flurry of speculation.
Social media platforms are abuzz with unverified rumors suggesting a complex relationship (to say the least) between Musk, Katie, and her husband, Stephen, a senior advisor in the Trump administration. But what are the facts behind these claims?
Katie’s move has raised eyebrows
During her tenure at Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Katie served as a key liaison between Musk and the White House, often delivering sensitive communications, according to CNN. Following Musk’s departure from his government role, Miller chose to continue working with him in the private sector, focusing on communications for Musk’s ventures, including Tesla and SpaceX.
Her decision has been met with mixed reactions. Some White House insiders reportedly welcomed her departure, viewing it as a relief amid internal tensions.
“DOGE is like Buddhism”
The term “throuple” began trending on social media following Miller’s career move, with users speculating about a possible romantic entanglement. These rumors appear to stem from the close professional relationships among the trio during their time at DOGE.
Adding fuel to the fire, Katie posted a quote from Musk on social media, stating, “DOGE is like Buddhism,” which some interpreted as a sign of something deeper. However, there is no concrete evidence to support claims of a romantic relationship, and such assertions remain speculative.
Stephen Miller’s response
Stephen has publicly defended the Trump administration against Musk’s criticisms, particularly concerning a recent spending bill that Musk claimed undermined DOGE’s mission. When questioned about Musk’s alleged drug use amid his wife’s new employment, Miller deflected, emphasizing concerns about drug trafficking at the southern border instead.
Despite the swirling rumors, there is no official statement from Stephen addressing the personal speculations involving his wife and Musk.
While the internet thrives on sensational stories, it’s crucial to distinguish between verified information and unfounded rumors. Katie’s professional transition to work with Musk is documented and substantiated by multiple sources. The “throuple” narrative, however, lacks credible evidence and appears to be a product of online conjecture.
As with many high-profile figures, the intersection of personal and professional lives often becomes a focal point for public speculation. Yet, without concrete proof, such narratives remain in the realm of rumor.
