Republican JD Vance has been in the spotlight after former US president Donald Trump declared him his running mate. Vance’s wife, Usha, a daughter of Indian immigrants, has established herself as a successful lawyer, having worked at the Supreme Court of the US, the US Court of Appeals and a prestigious San Francisco firm until her recent exit.
Social media has been abuzz with posts about his achievements, past statements and personal life, including his wife Usha. Mr Mahindra’s post, however, brought attention to their beautiful Indian wedding and Usha’s Indian heritage.
“Again this time, the US vice president has an Indian connection!” a user commented under Mr Mahindra’s post, referring to current US VP Kamala Harris who is of Indian origin.
Again this time, the US vice president has an Indian connection!

Someone joked, “Indians will watch only if it’s bigger than Ambani’s.”

JD and Usha Vance met at Yale Law School and got married in Kentucky in 2014. They had a separate Hindu wedding ceremony conducted by a Hindu priest, in addition to a traditional ceremony. They have three children.
The Republican Senator, earlier, spoke out about the influence of his wife on his personal and spiritual life. In an interview, Vance credited Usha’s faith for helping him navigate challenges and reconcile his Catholic beliefs. He has also often praised Usha for her support and accomplishments, calling her a “powerful female voice”.
