How many children does Nancy Pelosi have? Former speaker's family explored as Democrats prepare for her possible retirement after California's vote

NBC News has been told by several Democrats that former speaker Nancy Pelosi might quit politics. This popped up around the time that voters in California are set to send in their ballots on Proposition 50. According to the outlet, Pelosi has been considered as one of the most effective leaders within the party and also the "chief antagonist" to Trump during his previous term.

Many told the outlet that the 85-year-old Democrat will possibly avoid seeking re-election in 2026. According to one House Democrat from California,

"I wish she would stay for 10 more years. I think she's out. She's going to go out with Prop 50 overwhelmingly passing, and what a crowning achievement for her to do that."

A House Democratic leadership aide spoke of Nancy Pelosi and said,

"I think she's preparing to exit the stage."

Despite the speculations, there has been no confirmation indicating Nancy Pelosi's retirement from politics. Beyond her time in politics, her story is also that of a mother of five children—Alexandra Pelosi, Christine Pelosi, Nancy Corinne Pelosi, Jacqueline Pelosi, and Paul Pelosi, Jr.
