Hope Hicks To Join Megyn Kelly’s Media Company As COO

Hope Hicks, who served as Donald Trump’s communications director in his first term, is joining Megyn Kelly‘s company Devil May Care Media as chief operating officer.

Hicks will lead business development and manage day to day operations at the company, which includes The Megyn Kelly Show, AM Update with Megyn Kelly, the MK Media podcast network and the upcoming MK True Crime.

Hicks has most recently been working as a corporate consultant. She departed the White House in 2018, then joined Fox Corp. as executive vice president and chief communications officer, and rejoined the administration as counselor to the president in 2020.

In a statement, Kelly said that Hicks “is exactly the kind of woman I want running my company with me — strong, smart, strategic and the embodiment of class and poise.”

Hicks served as press secretary for Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, after earlier working for the Trump Organization.
