Who Is Jill Biden? Former Vice President's Wife 'Excited and Proud' of 2020 Announcement

[demmiblue]

Jill Biden wrote on Twitter she is "excited and proud" that her husband, former Vice President Joe Biden, is running in the Democratic Party's 2020 presidential primary.

The 67-year-old former English teacher married Biden in 1977, five years after he became a U.S. senator for Delaware, and is his second wife. The veteran politician's first wife, Neilia Hunter, died in a 1972 vehicle crash, along with the couple's one-year-old daughter Naomi.

She is stepmother to Biden’s children from his first marriage, lawyer Hunter Biden and the late veteran and former Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, who died of brain cancer in 2015. Together they have one child, Ashley Biden, a social worker.

Jill Biden was raised by her parents Donald Jacobs, a bank worker, and Bonny, a homemaker, in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, the eldest of five siblings.
