White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia is "transitioning out" of her position, multiple sources and a senior White House official confirmed to ABC News on Friday.

Zacharia officially began her tenure as press secretary on Monday, making her time in the high-profile role one of the shortest on record.

President Donald Trump himself commented on Zacharia's situation earlier on Friday, telling reporters he had asked her to reconsider her commitment to the job. "Honestly, if I were you, I'd reconsider. You think about it, but I would reconsider," Trump stated.

Trump further elaborated on his conversation with Zacharia, relaying that he told her she did not have to continue if she did not want to. Zacharia reportedly responded by saying the role was "a lot tougher," to which the president replied, "Welcome to the world of Trump."

The rapid departure raises questions about the stability of the White House press secretary position and the vetting process for such key communications roles.

This marks the latest in a series of changes within the Trump administration's communications team, highlighting a pattern of high turnover in critical staff positions.

The exact reasons for Zacharia's "transition" remain unclear, but the president's public comments suggest a mutual acknowledgment that the role was not a good fit.

Further details are expected as the White House navigates this unexpected change just days into a new press secretary's term.
