President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, is mired in a contentious and highly personal child support battle with an Arkansas woman who is the mother of one of his daughters.
The parties reached a settlement in 2020 where Hunter Biden would pay monthly child support of $20,000 to Lunden Roberts, but Hunter Biden reopened the case last year by asking a judge to reduce the payments.
The case has since morphed into a partisan proxy war of sorts, pitting the president’s son against Republican lawyers who are trying to get their hands on his financial records – including many of the same materials that House GOP lawmakers are seeking as part of their probes into the Biden family.
