They say behind every successful man, there is a woman. In the case of US Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, it seems like behind every successful woman is a man who hugs her tight and accompanies her to every campaign event.

His name is Douglas Emhoff and was present in all the major events in Kamala's campaign journey.

When the results were announced, he had four words to say: "So proud of you…”  he wrote on Twitter, followed by heart emojis and the flag of America. Beneath those words were photos of the couple locked in a tight embrace.
