Kochi: Corporate litigator Usha Chilukuri, whose parents migrated to the US from Andhra Pradesh in India half a century back, is set to become the first non-white second lady of the United States.
Her 40 year old husband Vice President elect James David Vance tweeted to thank Usha for her support in the election campaign.
Complimenting his wife, he thanked her for her support. “To my beautiful wife for making it possible to do this,” Vance posted. She is set to become the first non-white second lady. Vance also thanked President elect Trump and the American people for “their trust,” adding, “I will never stop fighting for ALL of you.” Trump too congratulated Vance and Usha. Growing up in a San Diego suburb, Usha, 38, took a bachelor’s degree in History from Yale University and a master’s degree in Philosophy from the University of Cambridge. She met J D Vance at Yale Law School and married him in 2014 under Hindu rituals. The couple has three children. An author and former Marine, Vance was elected as Republican candidate. He has served since 2023 as the senator from Ohio.
