Joe Biden is in the running to become President of the United States, which means that his family is going to be in the spotlight!
If you didn’t know, the 77-year-old former Vice President is father to four kids, two of whom have sadly passed.
Joe shared three kids with his first wife Neilia: Beau, Hunter, and Naomi. While Joe was senator in 1972, his wife, Neilia, and 1-year-old daughter, Naomi, died in a car accident, while his two sons, were in the car but survived.
Several years later, Joe met his current wife Jill Biden. They got married in June of 1977 at the United Nations chapel in New York City, and welcomed daughter Ashley in 1981.
Beau served as served as the 44th Attorney General of Delaware and a Major in the Delaware Army National Guard. He married wife Hallie in 2002, and they had a daughter and son, Natalie and Robert “Hunter,” in 2004 and 2006 respectively.

During an interview with the New Yorker in 2019, Hunter opened up about his decades-long struggle with drugs and alcohol, saying, “Everybody has trauma. There’s addiction in every family.

Ashley is Joe‘s youngest and only child with Jill. After graduating from Tulane University, she become the executive director of the Delaware Center for Justice, a criminal justice reform-oriented nonprofit.
