Joe Biden’s running mate. Just as all potential political figured, the interest has risen not only for her standings and political records, but also for Harris’ personal life. The most personal of all, of course, is her husband, Douglas Emhoff––who could potentially be the first Second Gentleman if both Biden and Harris are elected into the White House this November.
I’m sure you’ve had enough of the politics and, unfortunately, it’s only August. However, let’s look at the lighter side of the political spectrum––a supportive husband in Douglas Emhoff.

Emhoff was just as eager as any husband would be if their wives were running alongside Biden. He tweeted out “America, let’s do this!” and a photo of Biden and Harris,

It doesn’t end there, however! After Dr. Jill Biden, the potential first lady of the country, mentioned Emhoff in a tweet asking if he’s ready, he responded “Ready to work!”

Here’s everything you need to know about Kamala Harris’ supportive husband!
He’s a Lawyer!
According to DLA Piper law firm’s website, his nature of work is about representing “large domestic and international corporations and some of today’s highest profile individuals and influencers in complex business, real estate and intellectual property litigation disputes.”
In the courtroom, he’s had experience in defending “a group of production companies in an insurance coverage dispute over a highly publicized aviation accident on a recent major motion picture” and representing “more than 50 commercial producers in an entertainment industry-wide wage and hour class-action lawsuit and various subsequent individual litigation matters.”
Blind Date Lovers
Yes, sir, you heard that right! Who said blind dating was old-fashioned, huh? According to The Hollywood Reporter, the couple first laid eyes on each other after PR consultant Chrisette Hudlin set Emhoff and Harris up on a blind date. After a year, they were married! Thanks, Chrisette!
Santa Barbara Courthouse Wedding
A small and intimate celebration for the intimate couple. By Emhoff wearing a flower garland and by Harris breaking glass, they honored each other’s heritage. Oh, and their dance was to Corinne Bailey Rae’s Like a Star. It was a special little wedding fit for two special people.
Ultra Supportive
Emhoff has done it all. He’s taken selfies during her broadcast appearances to wearing her campaign merch, his enthusiasm and support have truly been unmatched. I still can’t believe how modern yet classic this form of support is––I love it!
