His breakup with Hallie was reported in 2019 (and he fathered a child with a woman he met at a strip club, Lunden Roberts, who gave birth in 2018). “It seems obvious now,” Biden added, “but then it was this unspoken, unacknowledged dynamic that had begun to impel us both: the idea that we could keep Beau alive by being together-that by loving each other we somehow could love him back into existence.” The affair began, he said, “as mutually desperate grasping for love we both had lost, and its dissolution only deepened that tragedy.” Unlike in his ex-wife’s telling, he wrote that it was Buhle who found the text messages between him and Hallie. In Beautiful Things, his own memoir published last year, Biden wrote about the end of their marriage too. I told the girls that from this day forward, you will tell them the whole truth.” When Buhle asked how they knew, Finnegan said, “We found his phone,” and Naomi added, “There were text messages between them.” They had already called Biden to let him know that they had seen the texts, the therapist told Buhle, adding, “From now on, Kathleen, no more secrets. “Debbie looked me in the eye and calmly said, ‘Kathleen, Hunter’s having an affair with Hallie.’” “‘Debbie,’ Finny said once we had Naomi on speakerphone, ‘can you tell her? We can’t do it,’” she writes. In her upcoming book, If We Break: A Memoir of Marriage, Addiction, and Healing, out June 14, Kathleen Buhle describes how she found out that her then husband, the president’s son Hunter Biden, was having an affair with his late brother Beau’s widow, Hallie. Per an excerpt published by People, Buhle and Biden’s daughter Finnegan called Buhle to the home of the family’s therapist, Debbie, whom Buhle had enlisted to help her children process their uncle’s fight with brain cancer and their father’s drinking.
