President Joe Biden’s time in office as the 46th President of the United States is drawing to a close after a historic career in office. The 2024 Democratic National Convention marks one of his final major events at the sitting president as he gears up to hopefully pass the baton to his current Vice President Kamala Harris.
Throughout his time in the public eye, Biden has always emphasized how important family is to him, famously picking up his kids’ calls no matter where he is. He has suffered more hardships that most parents can imagine, losing his infant daughter Naomi and wife Neilia in 1972 and his son Beau in 2015 after a long battle with brain cancer. Yet his love of family remains stronger than ever.
The Biden family are staples at Joe Biden’s political events. We regularly see kids Hunter and Ashley, with respective spouses Melissa Cohen and Howard Krein, cheering them on. Joe also has a whopping seven grandkids excited for his big day. Hunter shares kids Naomi, Finnegan, and Maisy with ex-wife Kathleen Buhle, son Beau with current wife Melissa, and fifth child, Navy, with ex Lunden Alexis Roberts with whom he’s not in contact. Late Beau’s kids with wife Hallie Biden are Natalie and Robert.
Here are the Biden family’s sweetest moments!
