Hunter Biden reached a private settlement with the mother of his unacknowledged 4-year-old daughter, the New York Post reported Tuesday, citing an anonymous source.
Lunden Roberts, the mother of Biden’s daughter Navy Joan Roberts, agreed to have her child support payments cut from $20,000 to $5,000 per month, according to the New York Post. Biden has already reportedly dished out $750,000 to Roberts. The mother and Biden showed up in person for the child support case in Little Rock, Arkansas last Friday.

Clint Lancaster, the lawyer representing Roberts, told New York Post that the details have yet to be finalized, and did not confirm that his client agreed to reduced payments.
“The case is sealed, and these are financial terms that should never be disclosed,” Lancaster told the Post.

Roberts reportedly worked as a stripper at Mpire Club in Washington, D.C.— a venue Hunter frequented around the time he reportedly dated his brother’s widow. Roberts worked at the club around the time she reportedly became pregnant with Biden’s child. Hunter initially denied being the father of Navy Joan Roberts, however a paternity test later confirmed Hunter was the father.
“Lunden is a great mom and little Navy is going be fine,” Lancaster said. “The kid has lots of love on the maternal side of the family in Batesville. They are a very, very close family. They adore her and are always going to support her … But I think everybody is disappointed that there’s not more contact [with the Biden family].”
Lancaster then took a swipe at the first lady for not acknowledging her granddaughter.
“It’s not lost on anybody that Jill Biden wrote a children’s book and [dedicated it] to her grandchildren,” Lancaster told the New York Post. “She could have kept it at that, but she named every child except Navy.”
“They hung stockings for the dog at Christmas but not for Navy. That is one of the saddest things,” Lancaster added, referencing the Biden family apparently snubbing Navy from the White House’s Christmas stocking decorations.
Hunter Biden raised eyebrows in May when he flew into Arkansas on a $6 million private jet to request reduced child payments. The trip from Los Angeles to Newport Municipal Airport in Arkansas reportedly cost between $55,000 and $117,000, according to the New York Post.
