Released on Wednesday, the episode<\/a> featured a discussion with Dr. Mehmet Oz<\/a>, head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and his wife, Liz Oz.<\/p>\n The hour-long conversation \u2014 viewed by some 3,600 people \u2014 covered vaccines, vegetarian diets, fertility rates, and eventually turned to the host\u2019s rocky pregnancy experience. <\/p>\n \u201cHow is it that baby in your belly right now doesn\u2019t get rejected by you, because that baby has half Stephen\u2019s genes?\u201d Dr. Oz quizzed the podcast host.<\/p>\n \u201cBut you don\u2019t think that\u2019s partly why women have, like, giant immunological responses when they\u2019re pregnant?\u201d Katie Miller responded. \u201cThis is my own personal theory. Like why have I been more nauseous this pregnancy? Why have I had more eczema this pregnancy? It\u2019s because it\u2019s more of my husband\u2019s genetic makeup than mine in this baby.\u201d<\/p>\n open image in gallery<\/p>\n Katie Miller, the wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, blamed her husband’s genes for making her sick while pregnant (The Katie Miller Podcast\/YouTube)<\/p>\n Dr. Oz, a former television host, pushed back against this, stating that her child has half her genes.<\/p>\n Shaking her head, the podcaster responded: \u201cBut I’m telling you this baby’s going to turn out looking like him.\u201d<\/p>\n Katie Miller announced in January that she and her husband \u2014 one of the most influential figures in the Trump administration \u2014 are expecting their fourth child<\/a> together. The pair met while working for the first Trump administration and married in 2020.<\/p>\n Since launching her podcast last year, Katie Miller has frequently discussed her kids on the show, and recently claimed that her unvaccinated child<\/a> is healthier than her vaccinated one.<\/p>\n Her husband, meanwhile, has long courted controversy for championing some of the administration\u2019s boundary-pushing policies<\/a>, such as sending migrants to a prison in El Salvador, launching lethal strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean and threatening to annex Greenland<\/a>.<\/p>\n open image in gallery<\/p>\n The pair met while working for Trump’s first administration, and they got married in 2020 (AFP via Getty Images)<\/p>\n The deputy chief of staff has also faced backlash for his extreme personal views \u2014 with even President Donald Trump advising him to keep his “truest feelings” private.<\/p>\n For example, in December, he took to social media to post a late-night rant about immigration and the \u201cunderdeveloped world.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhy doesn\u2019t the modern world<\/a> look like our ancestors imagined it?\u201d he wrote on X on December 28. \u201cBecause America (and the West) spent subsequent generations engaged in a vast, consuming project of self-loathing, self-denigration and the redistribution of our national resources to the states and peoples of the undeveloped world.\u201d<\/p>\n And, in 2019, a cache of emails leaked to the Southern Poverty Law Center, revealing Miller promoted white nationalist ideologies<\/a> and made claims about white genocide, according to NBC News.<\/p>\n![\"Katie](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-19-at-7-44-22-AM.png\")
