On the heels of another week of massive shakeups within the Trump administration, it appears Hope Hicks may make it through relatively unscathed.

While the president voiced his frustrations over the allegations of domestic abuse against the now resigned aide Rob Porter- Hicks' boyfriend- he has also came to the defense of his 29-year-old communications director.

President Trump released a statement on Friday which said: 'Hope is absolutely fantastic.

'She was with the campaign from the beginning, and I could not ask for anything more. Hope is smart, very talented and respected by all.'

The President's daughter, Ivanka, who hired Hicks several years ago to work for her company before she moved on to the Trump campaign, also weighed in, calling her a 'team player.'

Hicks carried on with her day job after DailyMail.com reported allegations that her boyfriend Rob Porter abused two ex-wives. By the close of Friday the president, daughter Ivanka and Treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin had rallied behind 'loyal' Hicks

Ivanka Trump came to Hicks' defense on Friday: 'Most importantly, the President has deep respect for her, cares about her greatly, and listens to her. That's not true of everyone. She's earned that'

The president defended Hicks, and her boyfriend, accused wives-abuser, White House aide Rob Porter on Friday, and tweeted about allegations Saturday

She added: 'Most importantly, the President has deep respect for her, cares about her greatly, and listens to her. That's not true of everyone. She's earned that.'

Topping off the line-up of support being rallied around Hicks on Friday was Steven Mnuchin, the Treasury secretary.

'I have been impressed with Hope since I started working with her on the campaign,' Mnuchin said in a statement according to the New York Times. 'She is exceptionally talented in leading communications for the administration. I view her as an invaluable asset to the president and us all.'

On Friday the president rallied behind accused abuser Porter, speaking to reporters in the Oval Office.

He said of the allegations: 'I found out about it recently and I was surprised by it. But we certainly wish him well. It's obviously a tough time for him.'

'He did a very good job when he was in the White House and we hope he has a wonderful career, and hopefully he will have a great career ahead of him.'

'It was very sad when we heard about it,' Trump told reporters in the Oval Office, 'and certainly he's also very sad.

'Now, he also, as you probably know, he says he's innocent. And I think you have to remember that. He said very strongly yesterday that he's innocent.

'So you'll have to talk to him about that. But we absolutely wish him well. He did a very good job when he was at the White House.'

There was no mention of three women who have accused Porter of abuse, and as soon as President Trump finished he quickly dismissed all assembled members of the press pool.

Saturday, President Trump continued to defend Porter, this time via Twitter, and likely was referencing yet another White House staffer who now stands accused of domestic abuse.

'Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new.

'There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?' he wrote.

The tweet may also have referred to David Sorensen, a speechwriter for the Council on Environmental Quality who resigned on Friday night after his ex-wife, Jessica Corbett, told The Washington Post how he had allegedly abused her.

The Post claimed she approached them before DailyMail.com published the first allegations against Porter this week.

Sorensen vehemently denied her accusations and described them as 'false and creative' to DailyMail.com, saying she was driven by jealousy for his job in DC and was 'anti-Trump'.

The president has been unhappy with the way the scandal surrounding Porter - who resigned from the White House on Wednesday following accusations of domestic abuse - were handled, a person familiar with the conversations told CNN.

A source told the outlet Trump was not involved in discussions when Hicks and other members of staff drafted a statement defending Porter.

However, after key players in the administration, including the president, defended her, Hicks seat in the White House seemed more secure, following the tumultuous week.

Hicks found nothing to smile about Friday as she made her way to the Oval Office to hear Trump deliver prepared remarks about her newly unemployed boyfriend.

The 29-year-old Director of Communications for the White House conveyed her sense of gloom and doom in a black belted jacket and some $800 black-suede, thigh-high Stuart Weitzman boots.

Hicks was photographed at one point listening in while a smiling Kellyanne Conway spoke into her ear, but her somber expression remained fixed on her face.

And later, she could be seen placing her hand on John Kelly's back as the forlorn Chief of Staff stood solo in a corner while watching President Trump speak.

Porter stepped down from his job following on-the-record claims to DailyMail.com from his ex-wives Colbie Holderness and Jennifer Willoughby about the abuse they say they suffered during their marriages to the former Trump aide.

Holderness claims Porter choked and punched her during their marriage, while Willoughby says he dragged her wet and naked out of the shower and was verbally abusive.

On Friday, DailyMail.com also reported that Kelly was told in October 2017 that Porter's ex-wives were prepared to level devastating accusations of spousal abuse against him.

Porter's then-girlfriend told Kelly personally that Porter had abused his two exes, according to a White House official.

White House counsel Don McGahn had known since early 2017 that Porter was at risk of being accused of being violent with the women.

But the news made it to Kelly when Porter's girlfriend told him, after contacting a White House aide who reported to him.

Porter's ex-wife appeared on Today on Friday morning to discuss her four-year marriage to the disgraced White House secretary.

Jennifer Willoughby spoke in depth about the emotional, mental and on at least one occasion physical abuse she allegedly endured over the course of her relationship with Porter, who on Thursday spent his last day at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

And despite their rocky union, it seems that Porter and Willoughby do have a cordial relationship as he called his ex-twice earlier this week about a blog post she was preparing to share about her abuser.

On that call, Porter asked Willoughby to downplay the allegations of abuse she was making against him, a request that she did not honor before publishing her post, entitled Why I Stayed.

'We were in contact even a couple of days ago as he was asking me to release a statement about my blog post,' said Willoughby.

'I went back and forth with him for an hour or so about what language I would be comfortable with and ultimately the language he asked I wasn't comfortable with. He came out with that statement less than an hour later.'

When asked what he had asked her to say, Willoughby responded: 'I don't remember the exact wording, but it was something along the lines of the post does not accurately depict my marriage. There were other things associated with it. That doesn't feel right. It does accurately depict my marriage.'

Hicks has yet to comment on the allegations being made about Porter and the two appear to still be dating at this time

Willoughby also shed new light on the FBI background check into Porter while on Today, and revealed that her ex-husband knew she had said multiple damning statements.

'I was part of the background check and I was completely honest with my experience of the marriage, telling them instances of abuse or police contact,' stated Willoughby.

Host Savannah Guthrie then asked if she had been told in advance about the FBI interview or if her ex had tried to coach her in any way.

'He let me know I was going to be contacted by the FBI once he was tapped for the White House,' she said.

'He was curious what I was going to say. He said, 'what are you going to tell them?' And I told him, 'I'm going to tell them the truth.''

At one point she even broke down in tears after being asked if she believed the allegations of abuse that are also being made by Porter's first wife Colbie, who she only met a few months ago for the first time.

'Of course I believe her,' said Willhoughby.

She went on to say of living in an abusive relationship: 'I mentioned the shame, but it's also isolating. You don't think that anyone would understand.

'To meet Colbie and to hear her story and that we both had that experience was a release. It was a recognition. We were in this together.'
