"As far as I know, Gen. Kelly wants to stay, and he is staying; he hasn't said anything differently to me," Conway told Fox News.
The statement was made in a wake of the Wall Street Journal's report, published on Thursday, saying that Kelly will likely leave the White House by the end of this summer. The administration responded to the report by saying the information was inaccurate, absolutely not true.
Conway said in the interview that the media have stirred speculation about Kelly's possible departure many times in the past with reports that ended up being erroneous.
She added President Donald Trump's team many things on its plate and does not focus on who is leaving next. Conway also said she was surprised that reports of Kelly's possible resignation dominated the national news coverage.
Upon arrival from a trip to Wisconsin with the president, Kelly said the report about Trump seeking his possible replacement was news to him.
