Spokesperson Confirms No Trouble in JD and Usha Vance’s Marriage

Rumors about Vice President JD Vance and his wife, Usha Vance, spread quickly after she was spotted without her wedding ring at Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina, on November 19. Usha Vance, age 39, attended the event in a burgundy turtleneck dress alongside First Lady Melania Trump — and the missing ring immediately fueled online speculation.

A spokesperson for Usha Vance issued a rare public statement, firmly rejecting false claims that she plans to divorce her husband.

Ring Was Simply Forgotten, Says Spokesperson

The spokesperson made it clear that nothing is wrong in the marriage.

“[Usha is] a mother of three young children, who does a lot of dishes, gives lots of baths, and forgets her ring sometimes.”

Usha and JD Vance, age 41, married in 2014 after meeting at Yale Law School. The couple shares three children — sons Ewan (8), Vivek (5), and daughter Mirabel (3).
No details about Usha Vance’s parents were mentioned in the statement.

“No one will ever replace my husband. But I do see some similarities of my husband in JD — in Vice President JD Vance.”
