Vice President's Wife Says Activist's Death Shaped Family's Decision on Fourth Child

Usha Vance said the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk last year influenced her and her husband's decision to have a fourth child. She described the death as occurring while the couple was already considering another child. "I think I had already started to open my mind to the possibility," she said.

They said the child is a boy and is due in July. They are also parents to Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel.
