US Second Lady Usha Vance was spotted without her wedding ring during a visit to Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River in North Carolina, sparking rumors about the state of her marriage. However, her team quickly dismissed the speculation, stating that she often forgets to wear her ring due to her busy life as a mother of three young children. The rumor mill had been churning after Vice President JD Vance expressed his desire for Usha to convert to Christianity from Hinduism in the near future, and a photo of Erika Kirk, the widow of late influencer Charlie Kirk, hugging JD Vance sparked chemistry claims between the two. Some Democrats, including Adam Parkhomenko and Richard Angwin, jumped on the opportunity to poke fun at the situation, with Angwin suggesting that Usha was only wearing the ring for a photo opportunity. However, Usha's spokesperson provided a more relatable explanation, saying that she is a busy mom who 'does a lot of dishes, gives lots of baths,' and occasionally forgets to wear her ring. Netizens reacted with empathy, with one user sharing a similar experience of forgetting to wear their wedding ring at home due to household chores. Another user, who has been married for 48 years, praised Usha's response, saying it's a sign of a strong marriage. Despite the rumors, Usha and US First Lady Melania Trump spent the day interacting with kids, teachers, military families, and service members from both camps, thanking them for their service and dedication.
