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. 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.
Also sat with the Emhoffs on Monday night was Harris’ sister, Maya Harris, and her husband Tony West. They sat beside the children of Harris’ running mate Tim Walz, Gus and Hope Walz.
Hope Walz, 23, has already featured in her father’s political campaign, appearing in multiple videos promoting his various campaigns as governor of Minnesota. A video of the pair having fun at the state fair recently went viral – bolstering Walz’s image as “America’s dad.”
Walz speaks often about his children who were born in 2001 and 2006, respectively, after a challenging fertility journey.
He and his wife, Gwen, have also been open about their son’s learning disorder, describing it as a “secret power.”
Walz is due to address the DNC on Wednesday.
