WASHINGTON — Omarosa Manigault Newman, the former pantomime villain of Donald Trump's Apprentice television show before becoming a senior aide to President Trump, has resigned, the White House said Wednesday.
Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Newman resigned Tuesday "to pursue other opportunities," and that her departure is effective Jan. 20 — exactly one year into the Trump presidency.

The former television personality made headlines earlier this year when a White House reporter, April Ryan, claimed a disagreement between herself and Manigault Newman nearly got physical.
But it was her social life that more often grabbed headlines. She married Florida pastor John Allen Newman at Trump's Washington hotel in April, reportedly using the White House as a backdrop for her wedding photos. Her $25,000 dress was provided by TLC television's Say Yes to the Dress.
Her official title was assistant to the president and director of communications for the Office of Public Liaison. She made $179,700, the top salary allowed by law for White House aides.
In language typical of White House statements on previous departures, Sanders said, "We wish her the best in future endeavors and are grateful for her service.”
Her departure at the one-year mark of Trump's presidency may become part of what observers expect to be an exodus of White House aides early next year. Dina Powell, deputy national security adviser, has already announced her impending exit this month.
