‘Where Was the Baby?’: Mindy Kaling Hilariously Calls Out Newborn Daughter for Missing Her DNC Speech

As a devoted fan of Mindy Kaling, I find myself constantly captivated by her extraordinary life journey and the unique blend of humor, intelligence, and vulnerability she brings to every aspect of her public persona. Her recent foray into the political arena at the 2024 Democratic National Convention only served to underscore her versatility as a woman of substance.


Did you know that even a newborn can be too busy to support her mom’s big moment? At least, that’s what Mindy Kaling humorously suggested—and she has an Instagram story to prove it.

At the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Mindy Kaling, known for her intelligence and humor, made a significant impact. Her attendance at the DNC was highly anticipated, providing an opportunity to address matters close to her heart. Yet, while the audience eagerly waited for the event, one notable figure missing from the scene was her newborn daughter, Anne, who was not present during the convention.

On Thursday, August 22nd, Kaling posted a sweet photo on her Instagram Stories from her home. The image showed her two older kids, 6-year-old Kit (also known as Katherine) and 3-year-old Spencer, huddled around the television. Kit was wearing pink heart pajamas and stood attentively in front of the group, focused on what her mom was saying. Meanwhile, Spencer, dressed in green truck pajamas, was seated comfortably on the floor, his gaze fixed on the TV screen.

“However, where was baby Anne?!” The Office writer playfully pointed out her newborn daughter’s absence from the photo, humorously suggesting she had ‘pulled a fast one.’ In essence, Anne had ‘outsmarted’ her mother, encapsulating one of the most recognizable experiences shared by mothers – the unpredictability of babies’ schedules. And it seems that Anne’s schedule didn’t line up with mom’s important speech.

Undeniably, given her unique style, she navigated the situation with her characteristic sharp intellect and self-effacing humor. It wasn’t that she was truly annoyed; rather, the entire incident turned into a humorous observation on the unavoidable struggle of trying to mold children into something other than their inherent selves!

As reported by TOI, Mindy Kaling has expressed the immense satisfaction she derives from observing her children’s exuberance. In her words, “The greatest reward I experience is witnessing their happiness.” Clearly, she takes pride in the happiness her children bring into her life. She went on to describe them as being overflowing with joy and humor, thus painting a vivid picture of a household brimming with laughter and affection.

What catches her attention most is the stark contrast between her children’s perspective on life and her own upbringing. She finds nothing dull or skeptical about them; instead, they radiate a genuine love for life, she observed. Kaling, who once felt shy and reserved as a child, is delighted to see her offspring treading a distinct path. “Somehow, they lack the fear of self-expression,” Kaling noted, her joy apparent as she pondered on their boldness in expressing themselves and interacting with the world.

Frequently, the mastermind behind Never Have I Ever posts heartfelt, everyday instances on Instagram, which serve to document not just the development of her kids, but also her personal evolution as a parent.

Just now, I came across a heartwarming post shared by Mindy Kaling. In this sweet snapshot, her daughter Kit had penned a lovely message for the Tooth Fairy, “Dear Tooth Fairy, take my tooth, love Kit.” Here’s to Kit and her fantastic, caring mother, Mindy Kaling!
