Ella Emhoff appears at DNC in Harris-Walz camo hat in support of stepmom
Ella Emhoff appeared at the Democratic National Convention to support her stepmom Kamala Harris, wearing the popular “midwest princess” camouflage baseball cap.
The 25-year-old appeared alongside her father, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, on Monday night wearing the camouflage hat, which reads “Harris-Walz” in bright orange lettering.
The item was seemingly inspired by singer Chappell Roan and reached nearly $1m in sales in 24 hours after it was first made available to buy online by Harris-Walz campaign.
Emhoff, a fashion designer, has previously been referred to as the “First Daughter of Bushwick” – a trendy area of Brooklyn, New York. On Monday night she was pictured making a heart shape with her hands and beaming at the crowds.
She recently came to her stepmother’s defense after JD Vance’s past comments calling Harris a “childless cat lady” resurfaced.
“How can you be ‘childless’ when you have cutie pie kids like Cole and I?” she wrote on an Instagram story, adding: “I love my three parents.”
Her older brother Cole, 30 – Harris’ oldest stepchild – keeps more out of the public eye than his younger sister. He works in the entertainment industry, following in the footsteps of his mother who is a film producer.
However, he also joined his father and sister at the convention, where Harris made a brief, surprise appearance.
The vice president is due to close the DNC – which runs from August 19 to August 22 – with remarks on Thursday. She later joined her family to watch president Biden’s headline speech, which closed out Monday night.
Also sat with the Emhoffs on Monday night was Harris’ sister, Maya Harris, and her husband Tony West. They sat besidethe children of Harris’ running mate Tim Walz, Gus and Hope Walz.
