Sean Spicer will sit down with Fox News host Sean Hannity on Friday night for his first interview since announcing his resignation as White House press secretary.
Spicer resigned his post Friday morning reportedly in protest of President Donald Trump's decision to appoint Anthony Scaramucci as the new White House communications director.
He later tweeted that he would stay on through August.
It's been an honor & a privilege to serve @POTUS @realDonaldTrump & this amazing country. I will continue my service through August
