The mother of one of Hunter Biden‘s children says she has never given a public statement on whether the president’s son will be indicted on charges relating to his financial dealings.
Lunden Roberts clarified during an interview with the New York Post that her lawyer, Clint Lancaster, had been the one who said he predicted Biden might be indicted after viewing “a significant amount of Hunter’s financial records.” Roberts said she has never spoken about Biden’s finances and does not plan to do so.
“His comment to [the] media was without my authorization, I might add,” Roberts told the outlet of Lancaster’s comments.

Roberts said she was focused on the “safety and well-being” of her 3-year-old daughter, Navy, whom she shares with Biden, according to the outlet. Biden had claimed in his 2021 memoir that he did not remember having an “encounter” with Roberts, though she had worked as an employee at his investment firm.
After Roberts filed a paternity test in 2019, a judge ruled in January 2020 that Biden was the father of Navy and that he had to pay child support. This came despite Biden’s claims that he had no money or income after his divorce from his first wife in 2017.
Lancaster had provided federal investigators with financial documents pertaining to the Arkansas child support lawsuit filed by Roberts in 2019. “I expect him to be indicted. Just based on what I saw in his financial records, I would be surprised if he’s not indicted,” he told CNBC in an interview March 17.

Biden, who married his second wife in 2019 and now has five children, said in April that he was “cooperating completely” with federal investigators looking into his taxes. He insisted that he is “100% certain” that he will be cleared of any wrongdoing.
