Former Vice President Joe Biden confirmed that Hallie Biden, the wife of his late son Beau, is in a relationship with the politician’s youngest son, Hunter.
“We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness. They have mine and Jill’s full and complete support and we are happy for them,” Biden told Page Six.
Beau Biden died from brain cancer at the age of 46 in May 2015. Hunter has three daughters from his wife Kathleen, who he is separated from in October of that year. The two engaged in a romantic relationship at some point after that, but it’s unclear when they started seeing each other.
“Hallie and I are incredibly lucky to have found the love and support we have for each other in such a difficult time, and that’s been obvious to the people who love us most. We’ve been so lucky to have family and friends who have supported us every step of the way,” Hunter Biden told the outlet.
The Bidens have given the couple their blessing.
