Vice President JD Vance claims his wife, second lady Usha Vance, had a change of heart about welcoming baby No. 4 after Charlie Kirk was killed last year.
“As my wife held Charlie Kirk’s widow on the first day of her terrible sorrow, Erika [Kirk] told Usha between sobs that she regretted having only two kids with Charlie,” JD, 41, wrote in his new book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, which was excerpted by The Wall Street Journal on Friday, June 5.
Charlie, a conservative commentator and political activist, was shot and killed in September 2025 at the age of 31. Charlie is survived by wife Erika, 37, and their two children.
JD, meanwhile, is a father of three. He and Usha, 40, share sons Ewan, 8, and Vivek, 6, as well as daughter Mirabel, 4.

“For years, I’d asked Usha to have another baby, and for years, she told me she was done, especially now that public service had elevated us into the national spotlight,” JD wrote in his memoir, per WSJ. “Something changed for Usha, and not long after we buried my friend, she became pregnant with our fourth child, a boy.”
The Vances announced in January, four months after Charlie’s death, that they are expecting baby No. 4.
“I don’t know why God does things like this,” JD stated in his book passage. “But, I am grateful to him that there will soon be another source of joy in our lives, another beautiful soul to wonder at and fall in love with, God’s beautiful creation.”
As for Usha, she previously denied that she “closed the door” on having more kids ahead of her pregnancy.
“People have asked me if we’re going to have a fourth baby, and I’ve never closed the door on that,” the attorney told NBC News in a March interview. “I grew up in a family of two, and I thought that was a great number. And then I had two kids, and I thought, ‘I didn’t feel quite done. I really wanted to have a third child.’”

She continued, “We did feel very complete with a third child, in many ways. We have our daughter, who’s amazing, and it was great, and so, I just wasn’t sure. But as time passed, I realized that I was feeling more and more excited about that possibility. If there was a chance, I should take it. I knew that I’d be happy if we only had three kids, and I knew that I’d be happy if we had four. And so, here we are.”
Usha, who will be the first second lady to give birth since Ellen Colfax in 1870, noted that she is feeling “well” amid her pregnancy.
Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith will be released Tuesday, June 16.
