What Kamala Harris and Douglas Emhoff's Relaxed Hands Say About Their Relationship

According to Vice President Kamala Harris’ stepchildren and Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff’s kids, the couple is still in the honeymoon stage eight years after meeting. "…Doug and Kamala together are like almost vomit-inducingly cute and coupley," Douglas’ son Cole told The New York Times. "I’m like, 'When is this going to wear off?'"

Well, if you ask body language expert Karen Donaldson (and you should), that lovey-dovey stuff won’t be wearing off any time soon.

The couple’s been smitten since they met on a blind date in 2013. Doug was so into Kamala following their first encounter that he emailed her his availability for the next few months. Apparently, the then-Attorney General of California was able to pencil him in at some point since they tied the knot the following year in Santa Monica. Kamala's sister, Maya, officiated.

Since then, Kamala has been inaugurated as VP and Doug's left his job at his law firm to teach a course on entertainment law at Georgetown University. Still, despite packed schedules, they make time to tell each other how proud they are of their accomplishments. "You know, my husband and I look at each other, and I say, you know, 'You're the second gentleman of the United States.' He says, 'You're the vice president of the United States.' We both kind of smile, then we get back to work," Kamala told Savannah Guthrie on the TODAY show earlier this year.

While they’ve understandably become a more private couple since Kamala was elected alongside President Joe Biden, Donaldson says it doesn’t mean the pair aren’t any less googly-eyed for each other. To prove it, she's analyzed their every move below.
