In a recent development, President Joe Biden has expressed his desire to meet his four-year-old granddaughter, Navy Roberts, "when the time is right." This marks the first time the President has publicly acknowledged the existence of Navy, the daughter of his son, Hunter Biden, and Lunden Roberts.

The President's statement comes in the wake of the resolution of a paternity case involving Navy, which was settled in an Arkansas court last month. Prior to this, Hunter Biden had denied being Navy's father. However, the settlement has now paved the way for the President to acknowledge his seventh grandchild.

In a statement to the press, President Biden emphasized that the resolution of the case was a family matter and not a political issue. He stated that he and the First Lady, Jill Biden, "only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy." The President further highlighted that the focus should be on the best interests and privacy of all grandchildren involved.

The President's statement also revealed that Hunter and Lunden are working together to foster a positive relationship for the sake of their daughter. "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," Joe told news outlets.

The President's acknowledgment of Navy comes amidst criticism from Republican presidential hopefuls who have accused him of not publicly recognizing Navy as one of his granddaughters. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis had notably challenged the President, urging him to acknowledge his granddaughter before worrying about other children.

In response to this criticism, President Biden's statement clarified that the decisions regarding Navy were led by Hunter, as the child's parents. The President and the First Lady are reportedly giving Hunter and Lunden the space and time to figure things out, following the contentious legal proceedings between Navy's parents that concluded just a few weeks ago.

As the Bidens navigate this family matter, the President's acknowledgment of Navy marks a significant step in addressing the controversy surrounding his son's paternity case.
