Spicer hasn't detailed his next steps upon leaving the White House, but told ABC News on Friday that he looks "forward to spending a lot of time with my family."

Priebus noted on Fox News that Trump has a history of remaining loyal to former aides, while describing his relationship with staff as "healthy."

"You look at people who were around the president and might not be working for him anymore, he’s still very close to those people," Priebus said. "They’re still very important to the president."

"I’ve seen how the world around the president works and it’s very healthy, and he cares about his people."

Spicer announced his resignation Friday amid reports that he disagreed with Trump's hiring of Anthony Scaramucci to be the new White House communications director.

The White House said in a statement that Spicer would "continue to serve the administration through August."

"It's been an honor & a privilege to serve @POTUS @realDonaldTrump & this amazing country. I will continue my service through August," Spicer tweeted.

Spicer will reportedly assist with the transition as he leaves. Scaramucci announced Friday that Spicer's deputy, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, would be his replacement.
