Surrounded by his family after addressing the nation in a victory address appealing to national unity, president-elect Joe Biden embraced his wife Jill Biden.

As members of his family entered the stage, the president-election held his new grandchild and put his arms around his son Hunter Biden, standing alongside his father, a key moment signalling the family’s strong bonds, broadcast to millions of people following the president’s attempts to disrupt them.

President-elect Biden held the baby – named Beau, after his late son, Hunter’s Brother, who died in 2015 following a brain cancer diagnosis – as a fireworks show lit up the sky above them.
