Vice President JD Vance's wife, Usha Vance, has announced that she is expecting her fourth child.
In a post on X, the Second Lady said she is looking forward to welcoming a baby boy at the end of July.
A statement posted on the Second Lady's social media account on Tuesday said, "Both Usha and the baby are doing well."
Vance and his wife, 40-year-old Usha, have three young children: Ivan, Vivek, and Mirabelle.
Usha Vance (née Chilukuri) was born and raised in the working-class suburbs of San Diego, California. Her father was a mechanical engineer and her mother a molecular biologist, both of whom immigrated to the US from Andhra Pradesh, India.
She met JD Vance as a student at Yale Law School in 2010, when they were both part of a discussion group on "social decline in white America."
Before becoming Second Lady, Usha Vance had a legal career, including a job as a corporate litigator at the San Francisco firm Munger, Tolles & Olson. She also clerked for conservative judges, including Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and then-Appeals Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh, before his appointment to the Supreme Court by Trump.
Usha Vance is the first Second Lady to give birth while holding the office, although other First Ladies have had children while their husbands were in office.
First Lady Frances Cleveland, wife of President Grover Cleveland, gave birth to daughter Esther in the White House in 1893, followed by a second daughter, Marion, who was born outside the White House.
JD Vance has been one of the most vocal members of the Trump administration advocating for increasing the birth rate in America. He said in 2025, "I want to say this very simply: I want there to be more children in the United States."
