Kellyanne Conway has been accused of lacking respect for the White House after a series of photos showed her kneeling on an Oval Office couch with her shoes on.
The images show the President's adviser perched on her knees on the couch with her feet behind her, as she was snapping photos on her phone of Donald Trump's meeting with leaders of historically black colleges and universities.
The photos were quickly shared - and debated - on social media.
To her critics, the photos showed a lack of respect from Ms Conway, while hers and the President's supporters pointed to images of former President Barack Obama resting his feet on the office's desk.
Others referenced the sex scandal of Bill Clinton, and Monika Lewinsky.
Ms Conway has not publicly responded to the criticism.
Like her boss, Ms Conway has had a rocky time since the inauguration on 20 January.
She made an embarrassing mistake when she referred to the non-existent "Bowling Green massacre" and raised ethical questions when she promoted the fashion products created by Mr Trump's daughter Ivanka during a TV interview.
Recently, she went on TV to say that the then embattled National Security Adviser, General Michael Flynn, had Mr Trump's "full confidence" - just hours before the President asked him to resign.
Her absence from the airwaves for a few days led some to speculate she was pulled off the air following her blunders, but this has been denied by members of the administration.
