‘Too Cute for Words’: JD Vance’s Kids Steal Hearts at the Inauguration – Photos
J.D. Vance’s family was the center of attention during the inauguration, as the newly elected vice president’s lovely kids won hearts and blazed social media.
Images of James David (J.D.) Vance and his family, including his wife Usha and their three children, Ewan, Vivek, and Mirabel, were taken at the newly elected Vice President’s inauguration on January 20 and have won over the hearts of internet users all around the country.
In one picture, the vice president, wearing a dark blue suit, holds his daughter Mirabel, who is adorable in a cream-colored attire with tights and shoes, as he gestures to the audience. Usha walks next to J.D. while holding the hands of their kids, Vivek and Ewan, who are both dressed in matching blue suits. She is wearing a soft pink dress and gray boots.
The strong family ties are further highlighted by other events that were recorded. Usha joyfully stands by J.D.’s side, holding Mirabel as he raises his hand during the swearing-in ceremony. Behind it, President Donald Trump watches.
Another close-up of J.D. holding his daughter. As she sucks her thumb, her bangs frame her face, and the rest of her fingers appear to be covered in vibrant colors, giving the scene a charming and whimsical touch.
In a different picture, J.D. is seen stooping to talk to his two sons, Vivek and Ewan. One of the boys may be seen leaning on a railing and holding his pet bear.
Netizens on Facebook and X were enamored with the Vance family’s photos and couldn’t stop gushing about their charm. A user commented, “What a lovely family. Children are too adorable to put into words. “Such a beautiful family!” said another.
Another person was thrilled to have a young family in the White House, pointing out that the Vances’ friendly and charming demeanor was enhanced by relatable moments such as the youngest son holding his teddy bear and the daughter taking solace in her parents’ arms.
Guards led J.D.’s mother and children out of the U.S. Capitol following the ceremony. While their sister was being carried, each brother walked with a guard.
These inauguration moments highlight J.D.’s ability to strike a balance between his personal and professional responsibilities, which has always captivated the audience. The story of the family is further complicated by the fact that his wife, Usha, was raised by Indian immigrant parents in a middle-class neighborhood in San Diego.
When J.D. announced the birth of his only daughter, Mirabel, in December 2021, he referred to her as a “early Christmas present” and a beloved family member.
Similarly, journalist Megyn Kelly spread the word on social media in June 2017 about the couple’s son, Ewan Blaine, who had just been born.
Although the precise date of their second son Vivek’s birth has not been made public, J.D. described a touching fishing trip in Michigan with his four-year-old son in October 2024.
One picture has Vivek being held by J.D. near the fishing poles, while another shows the youngster getting a fish from his dad. Other shots show them on the dock, where Vivek is seen dealing with fishing gear with a travel buddy.
The vice president has also opened out about his experiences as a dad. On the Ruthless Podcast, Vance talked about special moments with one of his sons after the October 2024 vice presidential debate.
“We have such young children—seven, four, and two—is it me or one of them that I take out with me?” he said. So we did the entire hotel thing, you know. In addition to watching a movie, he was able to consume a lot of junk food that his mother would not typically permit him to consume.
“We have a king-sized bed, and I’m on one little corner of it, and he still finds some way to sleep with, it’s like, a foot in my neck last night,” J.D. said in response to a question about one of his son’s sleeping positions posed by one of the podcast hosts. That’s why I could be a little sleep deprived this morning.”
Their story, which combines his new national duty with his personal life, continues to enthrall the public as J.D. starts his term as vice president.
