Washington: After Donald Trump's historic victory in the US Presidential elections, the name of a woman of Indian origin, Usha, has come into discussion. After all, who is this Usha, who has become the center of discussion in America as soon as Trump won the elections. Let us tell you that Usha is a 38-year-old woman of Indian origin, who belongs to Andhra Pradesh. Her full name is Usha Chilukuri Vance.
In July, Indian-American lawyer Usha Chilukuri Vance came into limelight when her husband J.D. Vance was nominated as the Vice Presidential candidate by Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump. With Trump-Vance's victory on Wednesday, Usha (38) is set to become America's second lady. Usha will be the first Indian-American in this role. That's why Usha's name is being discussed from America to India. Usha was standing with Ohio senator J.D. Vance (39) when Trump addressed his supporters after winning the presidential election.
JD Vance had praised Usha
Vance told the Megan Kelly Show podcast in 2020, “If I get a little too cocky or a little too cocky, I remind myself that she (Usha) is more accomplished than I am. People don't realize how talented she is.'' Usha, the daughter of Indian immigrants, grew up in a San Diego suburb. His parents' ancestral village is Vadaluru in West Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh. Usha, who was a bright student in studies and loved books, later showed leadership qualities. Usha has also been associated with Cambridge and Yale University. He also worked for various members of the Supreme Court. Her last job was as a civil litigation attorney at Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP.
How did Usha and Vance meet for the first time?
Usha and Vance first met while studying at Yale Law School and later got married in Kentucky in 2014. Vance has three children: sons Evan and Vivek, and a daughter named Mirabelle. After Trump selected Vance as his Vice Presidential candidate, Usha's Hindu roots soon became a topic of discussion. Vance has said on several occasions that his wife is not a Christian, but that she has been “very helpful” in deepening his faith. When asked about the challenges of an interfaith marriage, Usha said, “I think there are a lot of things we agree on, especially when it comes to family life, how to raise our children. So I think the answer is really that we just talk a lot.'' (Language)
