Vice President JD Vance and his wife, Usha, have announced that they’re expecting their fourth child.

The couple made the announcement on Instagram on Tuesday, writing: “We’re very excited to share the news that Usha is pregnant with our fourth child, a boy. Usha and the baby are doing well, and we are all looking forward to welcoming him in late July.”

The second couple share three children: Ewan, 8, Vivek, 5, and Mirabel, 4.

Usha is the first vice presidential spouse to be expecting a child while her husband is in office, according to People.

The family lives on the grounds of the United States Naval Observatory. Every vice president since Walter Mondale has lived with their families on that property.

The home was built in 1893. According to the White House, historically vice presidents and their families lived in their own homes, but the cost of securing the private residences became expensive over the years. In 1974, Congress agreed to refurbish the house at the Naval Observatory as a home for the vice president.

In the second family’s announcement, they went on to thank the people caring for their family: “During this exciting and hectic time, we are particularly grateful to the military doctors who take excellent care of our family and for the staff members who do so much to ensure that we can serve the country while enjoying a wonderful life with our children.”

The vice president’s homes

JD Vance once owned a home in Alexandria, VA. It was put on the market in Febuary 2025—about a month after he moved into the official residence for the vice president.

The home was purchased by a former Trump official who now serves as a government contractor. The final purchase price was revealed as $1,867,025—which was $172,025 over Vance’s $1.69 million list price, as first reported by Forbes.

The couple still owns a home in Cincinnati where the family lived before moving to Washington, DC. Right after the holidays, that home became the center of an investigation after someone smashed windows of the residence. The Secret Service told Realtor.com® that they detained a suspect, William Defoor, 26, shortly after midnight on Jan. 5.

Matthew C. Young, assistant special agent in charge of the U.S. Secret Service Office of Communication and Media Relations, said no one was home at the residence at the time and that the vice president and his family were not in Ohio.

Vance had been in Cincinnati the week before for the holidays. In a statement posted on X, Vance said: “I appreciate everyone’s well wishes about the attack at our home. As far as I can tell, a crazy person tried to break in by hammering the windows.

“I’m grateful to the Secret Service and the Cincinnati police for responding quickly. We weren’t even home as we had returned already to DC.”
