J.D. and Usha Vance Show Unity at Marine Corps Anniversary Ball
Senator J.D. Vance and his wife Usha Vance appeared together at the U.S. Marine Corps’ 250th-anniversary ball
in Washington, D.C., on November 8, 2025, walking in hand in hand and projecting calm unity.
Their appearance came days after Vance faced backlash for saying he
hoped his wife would one day share his Christian faith but that her not doing so “doesn’t cause a problem for me.”
The comment drew criticism from inter-faith advocates and raised questions about respect within their marriage.
At the ball, Vance praised service and “the continued unity and duty” of Marines,
while Usha stood beside him and applauded.
Observers saw their poise as a quiet response to the controversy,
symbolizing partnership and steadiness.
As the evening ended, the couple left together—hands clasped,
expressions composed—leaving behind an image of unity rather than tension.
