Brian Glenn leaves White House press corps, moves to Georgia ahead of wedding to Marjorie Taylor Greene

Brian Glenn, the Real America's Voice White House correspondent and fiancé of former Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, has resigned from his post and relocated to Georgia, telling the Daily Mail in a phone interview Thursday that he wants to "slow everything down" and focus on planning the couple's upcoming wedding.

His last day on the job is Friday. The decision caps a 37-year career in radio and television and comes as Greene herself has stepped away from Congress after announcing her departure in late November.

Glenn described the moment the decision crystallized. He woke early on a Sunday morning, settled into his recliner with a cup of coffee, and stared out the window. Greene noticed.

"I woke up on a Sunday morning, early, I got in my recliner, got my coffee and I was just looking out the window. I have a lot of clarity early in the morning."

Greene asked what he was doing. "Well, I'm just thinking," Glenn told her. She pressed: "Thinking about what?" His answer was blunt: "I'm gonna resign." Greene followed up, "From work?", and Glenn confirmed: "Yep. Today."

A wedding to plan, a new chapter in Georgia

Glenn told the Daily Mail he and Greene are actively planning their wedding, though no date has been set. "We're in the process of planning our wedding. Date to be determined," he said. He framed the move to Georgia as a chance to plant roots and step away from the Washington grind.

"I just want to slow everything down and just kind of put my roots in Georgia," Glenn said.

The couple's engagement made headlines when both announced it on X. Fox News reported that Glenn posted a photo with Greene and wrote, "She said 'yes.'" Greene shared the post and added her own celebratory message: "Happily ever after!!! Love you."

The engagement came roughly three weeks before Greene was set to step down from her congressional seat on Jan. 5, 2026, the New York Post reported. Greene had announced her departure from Congress in late November and said she would give up her seat in early January.

Colleagues praise Glenn's tenure

Steve Bannon, the former White House strategist whose WarRoom program airs on Real America's Voice, praised Glenn on his way out the door.

"Brian Glenn represents the fighting spirit of the WarRoom and Real America's Voice, he has the heart of a lion."

Eric Bolling, a Real America's Voice host, described Glenn as "tenacious" and "sharp" in a release the network provided to the Daily Mail.

Glenn himself spoke warmly about the White House press pool he is leaving behind. "If there's one thing I'm really, really gonna miss, it is the camaraderie amongst all of us here, because the White House press pool is truly a family," he said. He added that he has "an incredible amount of respect for the men and women who work here at the White House, the camera, all production, talent, I really do, writers, photographers, stills, video, everything."

That respect extended both ways. President Trump, who famously likes to lampoon the White House press corps as "fake news," had called Glenn the "best in the world."

Glenn's time at the White House included notable moments. In February 2025, he posed a question to Trump at a joint press conference with French President Emmanuel Macron. As recently as last week, he recorded himself on the new black granite walkway at the White House. In May 2024, he walked alongside then-Rep. Greene to an event on Capitol Hill.

Greene's own break from Washington

Greene's departure from Congress followed a period of public friction with Trump. The New York Post noted that Trump had called her a "traitor" during a feud, and Greene broke with the president on several fronts, including over the Epstein files. That falling-out appeared to accelerate her decision to leave office.

The broader landscape of conservative politics has seen similar turbulence. Tensions within Trump-aligned media and political circles have played out publicly in recent months, from clashes between Trump and prominent right-leaning commentators to positioning among Republican figures eyeing the future.

Meanwhile, the jockeying for 2028 is already well underway inside the GOP. Figures like JD Vance and Ted Cruz have been testing the waters in early primary states, a reminder that the party's next chapter is being written even as its current one plays out in real time.

What comes next for Glenn

Glenn was candid about the uncertainty ahead. He said he does not know what he will do for a living or what subjects he might pursue.

"In terms of getting out of politics altogether, you know, I am taking a step back right now from all that. I don't know what the future holds as far as what I'm going to do for a living, or what I want to talk about."

He framed the move as a matter of personal health and clarity. "But right now it's just a healthy time for me to physically get out of this business, slow down life a little bit and focus on myself," Glenn said.

That's a rare thing to hear from someone who spent 37 years in front of cameras and microphones. The pull of Washington is strong. The celebrity-politics ecosystem that has grown up around the MAGA movement, from media deals to entertainment ventures tied to the Trump orbit, offers no shortage of second acts.

But Glenn, at least for now, says he is choosing something quieter. A move to Georgia. A wedding to plan. A life outside the daily churn of the press briefing room.

Whether that lasts is anyone's guess. Washington has a way of pulling people back. But a man who wakes up on a Sunday, looks out the window, and tells his fiancée he's done, that's someone who sounds like he means it.

In a town where everyone has an angle, sometimes the most interesting move is walking away from the game entirely.
