Natalie and Robert Hunter Biden II are the children of Joe Biden’s late son, Beau Biden, and his wife, Hallie Biden. Natalie and Robert were 10 and 8 years old, respectively, when their father died from brain cancer in 2015.
Natalie graduated from St. Andrew’s School in Delaware in May 2023. Joe and Jill Biden were front and center watching her collect her diploma. Joe was also by Natalie’s side when she voted in the 2022 midterms. They celebrated with a TikTok video for CBS News. “I’m going to vote for the first time with my pop,” she announced. “I’m so excited for her,” he said. Like her cousins, Natalie attended UPenn. She’s believed to be dating Rafael Hajjar, a fellow student who was Natalie’s plus-one at her first state dinner in May 2024.
Robert tends to swerve the spotlight. However, he did crop up in a video showing him, his sister, and three of their cousins swearing the pledge of allegiance. The video was played at the 2020 DNC. According to Naomi Biden, when Joe was concerned about how his presidential campaign might affect his grandkids, Robert was quick to reassure him. “[He] basically said to him, ‘We know it’s going to be bad,'” she told the “Today” show in January 2021. “‘But we have each other, and we know the truth. And we will be okay.’ So I think he came out of that meeting feeling a little bit more comforted.”
