Hunter Biden’s baby mama makes stunning admission about the president’s controversial pardon

Hunter Biden’s baby mama Lunden Roberts said Monday that she understood President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son — and supported it.

The statement comes after Roberts demanded that Hunter be jailed in April 2023 for refusing to turn over his financial information in a child support dispute.

Roberts issued a statement through her publisher Skyhorse a week and a day after the president announced he would pardon Hunter after months of insisting he would not.

She wrote the book Out of the Shadows: My Life in the Wild World of Hunter Bidenwhich was released in August, about her whirlwind relationship with Hunter at the height of his drug addiction, which saw her give birth to the couple’s six-year-old daughter Navy Joan in August 2018.

“I think what Joe did is what any parent’s love would do, and not everyone is going to understand that,” she said.

“I would love to see more of that love for Navy Joan and hope that Biden will take the steps to become a grandparent to my daughter,” she added.

As part of her eventual child support agreement with Hunter, Roberts was okay with getting paid less each month, as long as Hunter started working on a real relationship with their child — and they connected over Zoom calls.

Roberts has also expressed that she would like to see Navy Joan have a relationship with her famous grandparents, admitting in the past that it was hurtful that her daughter was not included in the White House Christmas stocking show.

She began the statement by saying, “I don’t know what it’s like to be president, so I can’t say what choices I would make if I were in Biden’s shoes, but I am a mother.”

“There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for my child. There’s not a single barrier I wouldn’t break for Navy Joan,” Roberts said.

She added that she believed Hunter “was targeted because of who his father is.”

“A lot of people have done what he did and never got in trouble,” she continued. “But because his father is president, he is bound by different circumstances.”

In June, Hunter had been convicted of three felony federal gun violations — after lying about his sobriety when purchasing a firearm.

Hunter’s drug use was well known after he wrote a memoir on the subject.

He also pleaded guilty in a federal tax case.

The first son was due to be sentenced in both cases this month, but was pardoned by his father on December 1.

The Bidens had just returned from their annual Thanksgiving trip to Nantucket when the president granted the controversial pardon before making his first and only trip to Africa as president.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has since been peppered with questions as Biden has been adamant that he would not pardon Hunter.

She told reporters on Friday that the reason for the flip-flop was that “circumstances have changed.”

“Look, if you look at his statement, it’s quite extensive. It’s in his own voice. I think it takes you into his thinking. And he did – he struggled with this. He struggled with this,” Jean-Pierre said. “And again, he said in his statement in his own voice that he made that decision last weekend.”

“And the fact is, when you think about how the president came to this decision, the circumstances have changed. They have,” she argued.
