She also spent a year studying at St Edmund Hall, a constituent college of the university, in Oxford, England.

Career
After graduating from Georgetown University, McEnany worked as a producer for Mike Huckabee's TV show. She has interned for several politicians including Tom Gallagher, Adam Putnam, and George W. Bush, for both his 2004 campaign and in the White House Office of Communications in the Media Affairs department. On CNN, she is frequently called on to defend President Donald Trump, whom she supported during the 2016 presidential election. She announced her endorsement of Donald Trump for president on February 1, 2016.
In February 2017, McEnany had a heated exchange with New York Times columnist Charles Blow on CNN's show, CNN Tonight with Don Lemon.
Personal life
McEnany carries a mutated BRCA1 gene and underwent a double mastectomy in 2011. In 2016, conservative radio host Dana Loesch caused a small controversy by mocking McEnany's appearance, including her breast size, not knowing about her mastectomy.
