NBC:President Biden publicly acknowledges 7th grandchild for first time

Good for Joe, Navy, and the Biden family. I gave Joe some grief over this issue for not acknowledging Navy when paternity was established in 2019 and I'm glad to see he's doing right by his seventh grandchild.

eta: For the sake of clarity, paternity was established in 2019, but they settled the money and last name issue last month.

The president's son, Hunter Biden, and Lunden Roberts settled a paternity case over their daughter Navy in an Arkansas court last month.

President Joe Biden on Friday publicly acknowledged his seventh grandchild for the first time, while adding that his granddaughter Navy is "not a political issue."

In a statement first reported by People that was obtained by NBC News, Biden said that he and first lady Jill Biden wanted the best for all of their grandchildren, "including Navy."

“Our son Hunter and Navy’s mother, Lunden, are working together to foster a relationship that is in the best interests of their daughter, preserving her privacy as much as possible going forward," the president said. "This is not a political issue, it’s a family matter. Jill and I only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy.”

Hunter Biden and Lunden Roberts last month settled a paternity case over their daughter Navy in an Arkansas court.
