Erika previously caught heat on social media for her interaction with Vance at a Turning Point USA event, which one person blasted as “bizarre,” insisting they couldn’t remember a time they “hugged someone like this who was not my own Mr.”
In the wake of the awkward hug, RadarOnline.com spoke to a body language expert to get their input.
“She tilts her head as soon as she sees him,” Traci Brown dished. “That’s deep recognition and affection.”
Brown explained their body language showed a lack of “formality” and that “her hand on the back of his head” showed “deep closeness.”
She also revealed they seemed to have a “deep connection.”
Prior to Vance coming onto the stage, Erika praised him in a speech.
“No one will ever replace my husband, no,” she claimed. “But I do see some similarities of my husband in JD, in Vice President JD Vance. I do. And that’s why I’m so blessed to be able to introduce him tonight, because he understands the fight that we’re up against and he can articulate that in a way that transcends – he’s an amazing man.”
