VP’s lesbian daughter Mary Cheney set to give birth
David on May 18th 2007
Back in early December, the lesbian daughter of the Vice-President, Mary Cheney, ignited a media frenzy when she announced that she was pregnant. Mary Cheney has been tight-lipped about the details, but the Vice-President made this announcement in the Washington Post last month:
I’m delighted I’m about to be a grandparent for the sixth time,” said Dick Cheney. “I’m looking forward to the arrival of a new grandson.” The veep confirmed that the baby is due next month; this will be the first child for Mary and partner Heather Poe, and the third grandson for the Cheneys.
So, the baby should be born within the next two weeks. And once again, LGBTQ parented families will be put into the national spotlight. Stay tuned for the very latest. In the meantime, read the comments of Family Pride’s Executive Director, Jennifer Chrisler, in TIME. We wish Mary Cheney and her partner, Heather Poe, the very best - and hope that they enjoy these final hours of peace and quiet!
