Washington, Jan 21: Vice President JD Vance and his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, have announced that they are expecting their fourth child.


The couple shared the news in a social media post, expressing excitement about welcoming their son, who will join siblings Ewan, Vivek, and Mirabel.


Vance, 41, and Usha, 40, confirmed that both mother and baby are doing well.


In their statement, they expressed gratitude to military doctors and staff who support their family while enabling them to serve the nation.


The announcement comes as Vance continues his longstanding advocacy for larger families and higher birth rates in the United States. Since launching his political career in 2021, he has frequently voiced concern about declining birth rates, reiterating his stance in a 2025 March for Life speech: “I want more babies in the United States of America.”


The Vances are often seen traveling together, with their children accompanying them on overseas trips aboard Air Force Two.

Historically, it has been rare for US leaders in top offices to welcome children while serving. One notable precedent was President Grover Cleveland, whose wife Frances gave birth to their second child in 1893 during his presidency.
