“I think we find it pretty entertaining,” Vance said in an NBC News interview when asked if he was bothered by recent criticism regarding Usha Vance appearing without her wedding ring. “Like any aspect of life, you take the good with the bad,” added the US Vice President.
The discussion around this issue began after Usha Vance appeared without her ring during a visit to a military base, accompanying US First Lady Melania Trump.

“I don’t think it has affected us,” Vance noted, explaining that the couple approaches the issue with humor. “It’s funny and we enjoy it,” he said characteristically. He even mentioned a recent incident where Usha had forgotten her rings again. When she realized it, he assured her it wasn’t worth going back. “Let them talk. There’s no reason to go back and get them,” he told her.
For her part, Usha Vance appears to handle it calmly, while Vance explained that their family is ready to face the sacrifices that come with public life. “There are certainly ways that are difficult for the family,” he admitted, “but it’s something we signed up for and we accept it.” “Our marriage is stronger than ever.”
