Overview
- Photographers captured Usha Vance wearing her wedding ring at the Nov. 25 White House turkey pardoning alongside Vice President J.D. Vance and their daughter.
- Earlier images from Nov. 10 at Walter Reed and a Nov. 19 visit to Camp Lejeune showed her without a ring, prompting social media commentary about the couple.
- A spokesperson told People that the mother of three sometimes forgets her ring because of day‑to‑day parenting tasks such as bathing children and doing dishes.
- Online speculation also followed an onstage hug last month between J.D. Vance and Erika Kirk during a memorial event for her late husband, Charlie Kirk.
- J.D. Vance previously told a Turning Point USA audience that he hopes his Hindu‑raised wife will be moved by the Christian gospel, comments that fed broader discussion of their marriage.
