Mike Pence & Karen Pence – Together Since 1985

Mike Pence and his wife of three decades, Karen, are also on the list of powerful political couples. Their marriage is Karen’s second, having previously tied the knot with Dr. John Steven Whitaker. The two first set eyes on each other in 1983 at the Indianapolis St. Thomas Aquinas Roman Catholic church.

They made things official after dating for eight months. They dealt with infertility issues for the initial six years of their marriage, but their union is now blessed with three children. Their youngest, Audrey, is a law student at Yale University. In 2021, Pence lent his voice to narrate the four-part Fox News Media series about Rush Limbaugh.
