Joe Biden Family Omits Hunter Biden's Out-of-Wedlock Daughter From Christmas Stocking Display at White House
The family of President Joe Biden has officially put up its Christmas stockings above the White House fireplace. However, the holiday decorations do not include Hunter Biden's out-of-wedlock daughter.
According to Fox News, a Christmas stocking for Navy Joan Roberts, the four-year-old daughter of Hunter with former Washington D.C. stripper Lunden Alexis Roberts, was missing for the second straight year.
First Lady Jill Biden unveiled this year's White House Christmas decorations on Monday that featured stockings for each of Joe Biden's children and grandchildren.
Reports said nine stockings were hung above the White House fireplace. The president's son Hunter, his former wife Kathleen Buhle, and their three daughters got a stocking.
Naomi Biden's new husband, Peter Neal, and the two children of the president's late son Beau and his widow, Hallie, also got a stocking.
Jill Biden Says White House Christmas Decoration Theme Is 'We the People'
Jill Biden proudly showed off the decorations for the holiday season on Monday and announced that the theme was "We the People."
The first lady tweeted that the White House hoped "to capture the spirit embodied in the very of America." According to NPR, the theme was selected months ago.
"The values that unite us can be found all around you, a belief in possibility and optimism and unity... Room by room, we represent what brings us together during the holidays," Jill noted.
According to the White House, more than 150 volunteers came together to decorate the building for a week. The decorations reportedly include 25 wreaths, 77 Christmas trees, and more than 83,000 lights.
One of the centerpieces for this year is a Gingerbread White House that also incorporated a cookie model of Independence Hall in Philadelphia.
White House pastry chef Susan Morrison noted that the Gingerbread White House, placed in the State Dining Room, weighs 300 pounds, which included 30 pounds of chocolate, 40 pounds of royal icing, and 100 pounds of pastillage, a thick sugar paste.
Joe Biden's first dog, Commander, and first cat, Willow, were also displayed in various parts of the White House Christmas decor.
In the library, the White House also put on display a copy of the Declaration of Independence that was printed in 1845 and was later gifted to the White House.
Hunter Biden Has No Recollection of Meeting His Daughter's Mother
Navy Joan Roberts is reportedly Hunter Biden's fourth of five children, who was conceived while he was still in a relationship with Hallie, his brother Beau's widow.
Hunter is now married to South African native Melissa Cohen with whom he shares his two-year-old son, Beau, who was named after his late brother.
In his memoir entitled "Beautiful Things," Hunter claimed that Navy Joan was not his because he "had no recollection" of his encounter with Lunden Alexis Roberts, who gave birth to the child in 2018.
He said that period of his life was filled with drug use and "rampages" of random sex with women who were "hardly the dating type," Daily Mail reported.
"That's how little connection I had with anyone. I was a mess, but a mess I've taken responsibility for," he wrote in the book.
However, Independence County, Arkansas, Circuit Judge Holly Meyer issued an order in 2020 establishing that the president's son had fathered the former stripper's child. The order said DNA tests showed that Hunter was the father.
Hunter Biden eventually agreed to pay out monthly child support to the woman. However, the agreed-upon amount was not disclosed to the public.
