The separation speculation seem to be haunting the second couple. They might have tried in their ways to shut down the whispers, but it won’t just go away. And looks like, its their body language to blame.
There are red carpets where couples shine, and then there’s the one JD and Usha Vance walked on June 11, where the hand-holding was stiff, the body language offbeat, and the talks of a crumbling marriage seemed louder than ever.

The couple made their appearance ahead of Les Misérables at the Kennedy Center, a night that was supposed to be about theatre, art, and possibly a touch of class. Instead, it felt more like a live-action reenactment of Unhappy Marriages: The Musical. And just to thicken the plot, yes, Melania and Donald Trump were there too. They made their own headlines with their own uniquely uncomfortable version of public affection.
As for JD and Usha, well, let’s just say their presence didn’t exactly ease the mood.
It felt like an awkward case of history repeating itself. The last time the Vances hit the Kennedy Center in March, the night kicked off with a chorus of boos from the crowd. This time around? Same tune. Only this time, the atmosphere was even more bizarre. Ironic, really, considering Les Mis is a tale about revolution, disillusionment, and unraveling order. Quite the parallel.
JD, of course, made sure to match Usha in coordinated navy blue formalwear, a textbook move from the playbook of “See, everything’s fine!” But their matching attire might’ve been the only thing that actually aligned between them.
Their photos from the red carpet tell a much more different story: they’re holding hands, yes, but from a safe, emotionally distant two-foot radius.
JD’s got on what can only be described as a weary half-smile, while Usha doesn’t bother forcing one at all. Together, they look less like a couple enjoying a night out, and more like two people silently negotiating a public ceasefire.
It’s hardly the first time red flags have popped up. During their trip to India back in March, onlookers caught early signs of disconnection. Blank stares, minimal interaction, and stiff photo ops made headlines. And just last month, JD fanned the flames of divorce rumors when he barely acknowledged Usha on Mother’s Day.
At this point, their public appearances seem to serve less as damage control and more as quiet confirmation that something is off.

Still, if body language is a language of its own, JD and Usha are practically shouting. Sure, a single night of awkward PDA doesn’t spell doom, but within the larger picture, the forced smiles, the frosty silences, the unmistakable discomfort, it certainly adds weight to the speculation
Whether or not the couple addresses the rumors, one thing is certain. Their latest red carpet outing has only intensified the narrative. And as the world watches, the Vances’ next appearance might say even more than their words ever could.
