Expected to be present will be his wife, Usha Chilukuri Vance, who will become the country's new second lady. Here's an introduction to the woman who JD Vance has described as his wife as "brilliant" and “way more accomplished than I am.

Usha Chilukuri Vance, the wife of Middletown native and Vice President JD Vance, made history Monday. With her husband serving alongside President Donald Trump, Usha Vance became the first Indian American second lady in the White House. She is also the first Hindu second lady.

JD Vance wrote about meeting his wife, Usha Chilukuri Vance, as a Yale Law School student in "Hillbilly Elegy."

Usha Chilukuri Vance, 39, on Monday, became the first Indian-American and Hindu Second Lady after her husband JD was sworn in as the 50th Vice President of the US.

As US Second Lady, Usha Vance will fill a position that is traditionally relegated to the sidelines of White House life, which may well suit a political spouse who has never sought out the limelight.
