JD Vance has disclosed that his Hindu wife, Usha, is unlikely ever to convert to Christianity, even as she has taken on what he calls a 'vicious editor' role for his new faith-centred book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, due for US launch in June.

Speaking to NBC News on Tuesday, the US Vice-President said Usha was deeply involved in shaping the manuscript, while he sought to clarify earlier remarks that he had hoped she might one day share his religion.
