Sarah Pence, wife of Michael Pence Jr., has remained relatively under the radar despite her husband’s political connections. As Mike Pence files paperwork declaring his candidacy for president in 2024, the public is increasingly curious about the Pence family. Michael Pence Jr., the eldest of their three children, has recently garnered attention due to his father’s political activities.
Michael Pence Jr. is a Purdue University graduate and a retired pilot and lieutenant for the US Marines. A month after his father and Donald Trump won the 2016 Presidential Election, Michael tied the knot with his wife, Sarah.
Their wedding, however, was kept private and low-key. There was no official announcement, but Vice President-elect Pence mentioned their nuptials while volunteering at a homeless shelter in December 2016, stating that they planned to have a small, intimate ceremony for immediate family.

The wedding itself took place in the last week of 2016, just before the inauguration. The celebration was hosted at the Governor’s mansion in Indiana, where Pence was serving as Governor at the time. The couple’s origins story is fittingly tied to politics, as they met three years prior while attending Purdue University. It was during a political science class that their paths crossed.
Sarah Pence has been included in various campaign events, notably the Republican National Convention, even before her marriage to Michael. However, information about her remains limited. Little is known about her personal background or professional pursuits.
Recently, Mike and Karen Pence, the former second lady, announced the birth of their first grandchild on March 13, 2021. Michael Jr. and Sarah welcomed a daughter named Avery Grace Pence. Karen Pence took to Twitter to share the joyous news with their followers, expressing excitement over the arrival of their grandchild.
As Mike Pence prepares for a potential presidential run, more attention is likely to be directed towards his family. While Sarah Pence remains a private figure, her connection to the Pence family and her support during campaign events have sparked interest among political observers and the public alike.
