While Patel, who has faced criticism from both Republicans and Democrats, has never been married, he and Wilkins have been together for over two years now and seem serious about their relationship.

The couple is moving to Washington, D.C., together, it was exclusively revealed. On December 8, 2024, Wilkins posted a photo of her and Patel on Instagram, captioning it, “In the middle of everything, got to have this one there ❤️.”

A month later, on January 19, 2025, she shared another picture of them in a photo dump, further highlighting their bond. During Patel’s swearing-in ceremony, Wilkins spoke briefly about their relationship, sharing heartfelt words about her partner.

“Everything else—political—aside, this man is the most loyal, the most kind, the most caring person… I’m gonna cry,” she said just as Patel kissed her on the forehead.

Many compared the way Wilkins looked at Patel during his swearing-in to how JD Vance’s wife, Usha Vance, admired him during his Vice Presidential inauguration.

While the event was historically significant, many were captivated by the way Usha Vance looked at her husband.

Sky News shared the touching moment on Instagram. The video showed JD in a sharp suit and red tie, raising his hand as Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh recited the oath.

Usha stood beside JD in a chic pink coat, holding their daughter in her arms as the little girl sucked her thumb.

The scene was heartwarming as Usha gazed at JD with love, her wide smile lighting up the room as the Vice President pledged to defend the Constitution. Their two sons stood beside her, witnessing the historic moment.

Loud cheers erupted as JD finished his oath and was sworn in as Vice President. He then leaned over to give Usha a sweet kiss. The moment also included a warm handshake between JD and Trump after JD bent down to hug his children.

Sky News described the moment in their caption, noting how Usha held the Bible for JD as he pledged his allegiance to the country.

The heartfelt moment between JD and Usha sparked admiration online. “The way she looks at him is so sweet!” one person wrote. Another added, “It’s the love in her eyes. Makes me miss my late wife even more.”

“One of my favorite parts. The look of pure love and pride for her husband,” someone commented. Another admirer wrote, “Beautiful genuine gaze and smile. I’m so happy to see this.”

Another person added, “Lovely wife. I’m touched by the way she looked at her husband, full of adoration, a healthy family.”

“J.D. Vance’s swearing-in, with his wife holding their daughter, while she sucked her thumb, is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. An emotional, iconic moment. This is why we fight fight fight! ❤️” wrote a supporter.

One enthusiastic fan even gave relationship advice, saying, “Get you a wife or partner who looks at you like Usha Vance looks at JD Vance. She is so beautiful and an absolute breath of fresh air. #Inauguration.”

They attached a snapshot of the loving gaze Usha gave JD to emphasize their point. “Did you see the look of admiration on JD Vance [sic] wife’s face when he was being sworn in??? Priceless!! 🥰❤️,” another person wrote.

The moment between JD and Usha was more than just a sweet exchange; it reflected their deep connection.

This bond was also clear in Usha’s speech at the Republican National Convention in July 2024, where she spoke about their relationship and her admiration for JD.

She recalled meeting him at Yale Law School when JD had just transferred from Ohio State. “We were friends first because, I mean, who wouldn’t want to be friends with JD? He was then, as now, the most interesting person I knew,” she said.

Usha talked about JD’s inspiring journey, from a tough childhood to serving as a marine in Iraq, and eventually making it to law school.

She described JD as “a tough marine […] but whose idea of a good time was playing with puppies and watching the movie ‘Babe.'”

What impressed her most was JD’s deep desire to create a close-knit family, something he had longed for since childhood.

While Usha came from a middle-class Indian-American family in San Diego, JD grew up in a struggling household in Middletown, Ohio.

Despite their differences, Usha saw their love story as proof of the American Dream. “That JD and I could meet at all, let alone fall in love and marry, is a testament to this great country,” she said.

Her admiration extended to JD’s efforts to embrace her culture, from trying her vegetarian diet to learning to cook Indian food.

“Before I knew it, he’d become an integral part of my family, a person I could not imagine living without,” she shared.

She continued, “The JD I knew then is the same JD you see today […] And his goals in this new role are the same that he has pursued for our family—to keep people safe, to create opportunities, to build a better life, and to solve problems with an open mind.”

Reflecting on their journey, Usha concluded, “Neither JD nor I expected to be here, but it’s a powerful example of the American Dream.”

Four months later, JD was sworn in as Vice President. On November 6, 2024, he expressed gratitude on X, thanking his wife for her support.

JD has always credited Usha for her role in his life, even calling her his “Yale spirit guide” in his book Hillbilly Elegy.

Together, they have built a strong family with their three children, Ewan, Mirabel, and Vivek, sharing sweet moments, like father-son fishing trips, on social media.
