Usha is the wife of JD Vance and her family’s ancestral village Vadluru is located near famous Godavari town Tanuku in the lush green West Godavari district, about 35 km from district headquarters Bhimavaram.

With the Trump-Vance victory on Wednesday, Usha Vance, 38, is set to become America’s Second Lady — the first Indian-American in that role.
