Jimmy Kimmel has turned his attention to savagely mocking Donald Trump’s special White House assistant, Natalie Harp, who has been the subject of attention in recent weeks.
Harp, 35, has become a constant presence around the US president and has been reported to have some influence on him, leading to wild speculation of a less-than-innocent relationship.
Jimmy Kimmel’s wife and co-head writer Molly McNearney also joined in on the fun as the couple took to the stage to satirize the 35-year-old blonde aide; however, the joke has also led to some online backlash.

The Late-Night sketch began with McNearney playing a parody of Harp entering the stage carrying a laptop, briefcase, and a golf set and interrupting Kimmel’s monologue.
Kimmel introduces her as his unusually devoted and clingy aide, Natalie, who then says, “This man is my guardian and protector, and I’m here to do whatever it is you need me to do,” referencing Harp’s real-life message to Trump.
McNearney hamming up the assistant’s devotion got uncomfortably close to Kimmel wanting to post “Truths” for him before asking if she could look inside his mouth.
At one point, Natalie 2.0 hilariously loses it after Kimmel says he doesn’t need her at the moment. Kimmel calms her down and picks her up, with the assistant saying, “Your hands are so soft, and your body’s so strong.”
Kimmel eventually asked his sidekick Guillermo Rodriguez to escort her to the back, and she lost it once again, saying she couldn’t “smell” him or “wipe” him backstage.
She even shouts “Your wife doesn’t deserve you!… Your body is a wonderland” and “I’ll be waiting in the shower,” driving home her obsession and capping off a hilarious sketch.

As usual, Kimmel’s dig at Harp has raised eyebrows and sparked mixed reception online. Some found the joke to be funny, with one X user writing, “Scary part is that this is so close to reality, it barely counts as parody.”
Another said, “If MAGA was upset at @ossoff for merely mentioning Natalie, this skit is gonna make them lose what’s left of their minds.”
However, Kimmel also faced heavy criticism, with some even calling for his show to end. A person wrote, “What a f-cking idiot; his show can’t end fast enough! He’s not funny…he’s annoying.
“Cus attacking a bone cancer survivor is always hilarious,” another said, bringing up Harp’s past health struggles, which made her more loyal to the president.
A third critic noted, “Cancel this piece of sh-t,” while a fourth claimed, “He won’t be working much longer.”

Kimmel is often critical of the Trump administration, and the recent sketch isn’t the first time the host has taken a shot at the notorious blonde aide.
The 58-year-old comedian painted a not-so-nice picture of the president and Harp after reports revealed that the aide was influential in prompting the recent ban on select media outlets.
Trump announced that he was banning “Fake News” CNN, MS Now, formerly known as MSNBC, which he said lacked “viewership and credibility,” and Politico, which he accused of receiving an “Illegal and ridiculous $8 million subscription. “
Harp, who Kimmel called the “president of the president’s fan club,” reportedly showed Trump footage from MS Now, “criticizing his administration” ahead of the ban the president announced on his Truth Social account.
He said, “Poor Natalie Harp, can you imagine how many diapers she had to change after that incident? Let’s get you up on the koala changing table, sir.”
The three outlets banned filed a lawsuit against the president for allegedly infringing on their First Amendment rights.
Five major networks, including Fox News, responded to the ban by boycotting the president and removing their press coverage of the White House.
More About The Special Assistant To The President, Natalie Harp

Harp officially serves as the special assistant and executive assistant to the president. OK! Magazine reported that she has served as an assistant to Trump since 2025.
The 35-year-old has been dubbed the president’s “human printer” because she often carries around a portable printer, which she uses to offer Trump printouts of news articles and social media posts, which is reportedly his preferred medium.
Trump Biographer Michael Wolff leaked letters Harp sent to the 80-year-old, calling him her “guardian and protector” and saying things like, “You are all that matters to me” and “I don’t want to ever let you down.”
Reports also recently came out detailing an incident where Harp climbed into the trunk of a motorcade to avoid being left behind by Trump.
Harp publicly credited Trump’s Right to Try Act with giving her access to experimental treatments that saved her life, which may perhaps explain her unique devotion to him.
Other Hosts Take Shots At Donald Trump’s ‘Emotional Support Employee’

Kimmel is only one of the number of media personalities that have used their platform to make fun of Harp.
As reported by the Daily Beast, famous Trump nemesis Rosie O’Donnell, on her third night hosting “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” took the opportunity to take a shot at Trump’s relationship with the controversial aide.
“I do have some bad news for President Petty Roosevelt,” she said, referring to Trump. “That’s all I’m going to say about you tonight, sweetheart. You got to realize it’s time to hang up your wig and let Natalie tuck you in,” O’Donnell concluded.
TV host and comedian Bill Maher also talked about their closeness, calling Harp the president’s “emotional support employee,” according to the Irish Star.
However, he did defend Harp from all the “hate” that has come her way, saying, “She seems incredibly devoted to her job, never takes a day off.”
“Sometimes she works so hard she forgets to eat and sleep, and now everyone in America is saying the same thing: Why can’t I get a millennial who works like that?” Maher added.
