US Vice President JD Vance publicly expressed hope that his Indian-origin wife, Usha Vance, will eventually convert to Christianity during a Turning Point USA event at University of Mississippi Wednesday. "I hope eventually my wife comes to see it the same way," Vance told 10,000 attendees, citing his belief in Christian gospel. However, he respected her free will, stating it wouldn't cause problems if she declined. Usha, raised in a non-religious Hindu family, previously revealed their interfaith household arrangement on Meghan McCain's podcast. The couple sends their three children Ewan, Vivek, and Mirabel to Catholic school, allowing each child to choose baptism. JD converted to Catholicism after their children's births, prompting discussions about raising kids in faith while Usha remains Hindu.
