Hunter Biden’s attorneys said at a Monday court hearing that the first son has already paid $750,000 in child support to the mother of his love child, the New York Post reports.

Biden appeared at a paternity hearing in Batesville, Arkansas, regarding the child support case for his four-year-old daughter, Navy Joan Roberts. The child’s mother is Lunden Alexis Roberts, a former stripper with whom Biden had a brief affair. 

A judge ruled April 25 that Biden must attend all the paternity hearings in person to speed up the litigation process. Biden initially denied being the out-of-wedlock child’s father until a paternity test revealed him to be so. His attorney, Abbe Lowell, said Hunter has been paying $20,000 per month to support the child since he took the paternity test, the NY Post reported.

At the hearing, the judge ordered Biden to answer questions about his current finances, including art sales, investments and other business transactions, according to the outlet. Biden will have to answer questions under oath at a deposition in mid-June, the judge reportedly said. (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Oversight Republicans Renew Demand For Hunter Biden’s Art Sale Records)

His lawyers claimed Biden’s only form of income is a percentage of his art sales without naming specifics, the Washington Free Beacon (WFB) reported. They objected to Lunden Roberts’ legal team’s attempt to frame Biden as wealthy and privileged, arguing he has only flown on Air Force One once and “stayed on a cot in his dad’s room” when he traveled with President Joe Biden to Dublin, Ireland, according to the Free Beacon.

Roberts’ team argued in a Thursday motion that Biden’s “expensive” legal team demonstrates he can afford the child support payments. “If Mr. Biden can afford a Washington DC, Hollywood, Chicago big law, and the best domestic relations attorney on the Texas side of the Texarkana border, he surely must have income for child support purposes,” Roberts’ attorney Clint Lancaster wrote in the filing, the Free Beacon reported.

Biden and Roberts settled their paternity lawsuit in March 2020, until Biden reopened the case in September in an attempt to reduce his child support payments, according to the Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette. The child was born in August 2018 and Roberts filed a paternity suit in 2019 when Biden denied being the father.

A trial to see whether Biden will be able to reduce his child support payments is set for July. He has allegedly not met his daughter and the Biden family has not acknowledged her existence.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
