OHIO Senator J.D. Vance is Donald Trump’s running mate in the 2024 presidential election.
The ex self-proclaimed “never Trumper” is married with three children — here’s everything we know about them.
Meet J.D. Vance’s kids Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel
James David Vance and his wife Usha Chilukuri Vance share three children together.
They have two sons named Ewan and Vivek, and a daughter called Mirabel.
The Republican does not share much about his children, but mentioned his middle child on the Senate floor in February 2024.
During a debate on aid packages to Ukraine, he mentioned missing his son Vivek’s fourth birthday.
The father-of-three then delivered a birthday message to his son, saying how much he loved him before reading all of Dr Seuss’ Oh, The Places You’ll Go!
The couple had their first child Ewan in June 2017.
They welcomed their second boy Vivek in February 2020.
Their first daughter Mirabel was born in December 2021.
Vance shared a pic of the happy couple in hospital with their newborn welcoming their “early Christmas present”.
Their mum Usha
Vance says his wife Usha, born in 1986, has had considerable influence over his career.
During her time in law school, she served as the Executive Development Editor of the Yale Law Journal and the Managing Editor of the Yale Journal of Law & Technology.
The sweethearts met as students at Yale Law School in 2013, when they joined a discussion group on “social decline in white America”, New York Times reports.
Mrs Vance graduated with a BA in History from Yale and was also a Gates Scholar at Cambridge University, according to her LinkedIn profile.
Usha works as a litigation associate for Munger, Tolles, & Olson.
If I maybe get a little bit too cocky or a little too proud I just remind myself that she is way more accomplished than I am

She is licensed to practice law in California, Ohio, and the District of Columbia.
The couple married in 2014 and share three children.
Usha is the child of Indian immigrants and was born and raised in San Diego, California.
She was raised in a Hindu household and has previously spoken of the importance of her religious upbringing and its impact on her support for her husband.
In 2020, Mr Vance told the Megyn Kelly Show podcast how his wife keeps him grounded.
He said: “If I maybe get a little bit too cocky or a little too proud I just remind myself that she is way more accomplished than I am.
“People don’t realise just how brilliant she is.”
