Kerstin Emhoff, the ex-wife of Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, defended Vice President Kamala Harris against sexist remarks made by Republican VP candidate J.D. Vance, who criticized childless women, labeling them as 'miserable cat ladies.' In a statement to CNN, Kerstin described Harris as a loving and protective co-parent for over a decade, emphasizing their close relationship and her gratitude for their blended family. The backlash against Vance's comments has been widespread, with public figures like Jennifer Aniston also condemning his remarks. The resurfacing of Vance's 2021 interview comes as Harris is positioned as the presumptive Democratic nominee for the 2024 presidential election following President Biden's withdrawal. Harris's stepchildren affectionately refer to her as 'Momala,' highlighting the familial bond within their modern family structure.
