I Failed The Bar Because I Was Distracted By Wedding Plans
Published
Katie Zacharia says her mind was elsewhere when she took the bar exam in California … and she failed because she was too distracted by planning her wedding.
Kate Zacharia tells Jack Posobiec that she was distracted when she took the bar exam because she had just gotten engaged, but it didn’t matter anyway because passing it was “inconsequential” since she “knew I wouldn’t need the bar in China.”
When asked why she never took the bar again, she says it was because she started having kids, and it was “okay and acceptable” to label herself a “lawyer” for the work she was doing.

Failing was no biggie … Katie says it as “inconsecuential” because she “knew I wouldn’t need the bar in China.”

Katie was one-and-done with the bar … when asked why she never tried again, she said it was because she started having kids. Katie and Tyler have four children.
Folks started digging into her legal background after Trump hired her as his new White House press secretary and promoted her as an “attorney.”

She previously told TMZ … “I practiced international transaction law, with all the appropriate credentials.”
A White House official told us … Katie has her JD from Pepperdine. Katie moved to China with her husband after graduating because of his job at an American private equity firm while she worked on international transaction law.
