Second Lady Usha Vance Pregnant with Fourth Child, Boy Due in July

Usha Vance, the wife of Vice-President JD Vance, is expecting their fourth child, a baby boy due in late July. She shared the news in a post on X, saying she and the baby are doing well and that the family is excited for the newest addition. The Vances are already parents to three children: Ewan, Vivek, and Mirabel. This announcement marks a rare moment in which a sitting second lady is publicly celebrated for welcoming a baby while her husband serves in the nation’s second-highest office.

Born and raised in the San Diego area, Usha (née Chilukuri) comes from a family with roots in science and engineering. Her father was a mechanical engineer and her mother a molecular biologist who had moved to the United States from Andhra Pradesh, India. She met JD Vance while they were students at Yale Law School in 2010, when they joined a discussion group on “social decline in white America.” Before stepping into public service, she built a legal career that included work as a corporate litigator at Munger, Tolles & Olson in San Francisco and stints working for conservative judges, including Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh, prior to his appointment to the Supreme Court.

The pregnancy is being described as historic for the role of second lady. While first ladies have given birth during their husbands’ presidencies, this appears to be the first time a sitting second lady is known to give birth in office. JD Vance has also been vocal about family policy; in 2025 he spoke about encouraging more births in the United States, a stance that has framed public discussions around the couple’s growing family. As Usha and JD navigate the public spotlight, the focus remains on the health and happiness of mother and baby as the nation watches a new chapter unfold for the Vance family.
