White House AGAIN refuses to recognize Biden’s seventh grandchild: Karine Jean-Pierre closes question on Hunter’s four-year-old daughter after settling down with baby mama and agreeing to relationship with little girl
- Karine Jean-Pierre closed a question about Hunter Biden’s illegitimate child
- Hunter settled a child support dispute with mother Lunden Roberts last week
- He agreed to play a part in the life of four-year-old Navy Joan
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre closed a question Wednesday about whether President Joe Biden would now recognize four-year-old Navy Joan as his grandchild after son Hunter Biden settled his child support dispute.
DailyMail.com reported on Friday that Hunter and Lunden Roberts, 32, have come to an agreement on child support after the first son said he would play a role in his illegitimate daughter’s life.
That could open the door to a meeting with her grandfather, if the president was so inclined.
“I have nothing to share from here,” Jean-Pierre said at Wednesday’s briefing, quickly moving on to the next reporter.
The preschool-aged girl has never met Hunter, and the Biden family has refused to count her as part of the family — with only six stockings representing the grandchildren to be hung in the White House over Christmas.

None of the Bidens have met four-year-old Navy Joan, including (from left) President Joe Biden, first lady Jill Biden, Hunter Biden and baby Beau Biden, who were photographed together during the Fourth of July celebration on Tuesday
That reports the New York Times Friday that aides have been told during strategy sessions that Bidens has six grandchildren — not seven.
The blonde girl was conceived around December 2017 while Hunter was still in a relationship with his brother Beau’s widow, Hallie.
In his 2021 memoir, Beautiful Things, Hunter — who was addicted to crack cocaine at the time and spiraled — said he couldn’t remember it happening.
“I had no recollection of our meeting,” Hunter wrote. ‘I had so little connection with anyone. I was a mess, but a mess for which I took responsibility.’
It was initially reported that the pair met while Roberts was working as a pole dancer at Hunter’s favorite DC strip club.
But texts retrieved from his abandoned laptop proved she was, in fact, on the payroll at his investment company, Rosemont Seneca.
As DailyMail.com revealed, Hunter initially vowed to support Roberts “emotionally, physically and financially.”
Instead, he cruelly “ghosted” her, ignoring her texts and calls, and refusing to acknowledge that Navy Joan was his until Roberts filed a lawsuit for child support in 2019 and a court-ordered DNA test found her. proven claims.
In the ensuing lawsuit, Hunter claimed he was “unemployed and had no monthly income,” despite living in a $12,000-a-month Hollywood rental and driving a Porsche.
But when ordered to submit his financials, he repeatedly failed to do so before agreeing to a 2019 settlement that has seen him pay Roberts more than $750,000 to date.
Despite already facing congressional and federal investigations into his financial affairs, Hunter unexpectedly reopened the case last September, claiming he had undergone “a substantial material change” in his income.
Roberts refused to budge and upped the ante by petitioning the court to officially rename her daughter Navy Joan Biden to “profit from carrying the Biden family name.”
Her lawyers once again demanded that Hunter hand over all the details of his finances, from his shady business dealings in Ukraine and China to the names of the mysterious art lovers who paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for his budding paintings.
However, this week’s deal ends proceedings without the need for a trial in July.
Lawyers for Roberts and Hunter, whose expensive stable of lawyers includes Abbe Lowell — who reportedly charges up to $855 an hour — declined to comment.
