Ella Emhoff in tears as Kamala Harris' family support each other in moving photos

Her husband Doug was in attendance, as were his two children, Cole and Ella, and the three were pictured leaning on each other for support.

Ella was pictured breaking down in tears, while Cole and Doug both looked affected by the outcome of the election, with Doug keeping a close arm on his daughter.

Harris, 60, married Doug Emhoff in 2014 a year after they met on a blind date, and when they married, she became a stepmom, or rather, "Momala," to his two children whom he welcomed with his ex-wife Kerstin.

Cole and his wife Greenley asked Harris to officiate their 2022 wedding, proving how close the family are, while Ella has often been on the campaign trail for Harris, including appearing on stage at the 2024 Democratic National Convention.

Also in attendance at the speech, given at her alma mater Howard University, were Governor Tim Walz and his family, including 22-year-old daughter Hope.

Hope also appeared in tears, proudly showing how impacted she was by the results, and Tim, the Governor of Minnesota and Kamala's VP pick, stood by her side, as did mom Gwen.

Harris conceded to Trump over a phone call earlier in the day and senior aides shared that she congratulated him, and discussed the "importance of a peaceful transfer of power and being a president for all Americans".

"A fundamental principle of American democracy is that when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle, as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny, and anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it. At the same time, in our nation, we owe loyalty not to a president, not to a party, but to the constitution of the United States," she said in her speech.

"While I concede this election, I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign," she continued.

"The fight for our freedom will take hard work. But like I always say, we like hard work. Hard work is good work. Hard work can be joyful work, and the fight for our country is always worth it. It is always worth it.

"This is not a time to throw up our hands. This is a time to roll up our sleeves. This is a time to organize, to mobilize, and to stay engaged for the sake of freedom and justice and the future that we all know we can build together."

She closed: "There’s an adage an historian once called a law of history, true of every society across the ages. The adage is, 'only when it is dark enough can you see the stars,'. I know many people feel like we are entering a dark time, but for the benefit of us all, I hope that is not the case. But here’s the thing, America, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars. The light of optimism, of faith, of truth and service. And may that work guide us, even in the face of setbacks toward the extraordinary promise of the United States of America."
