Until recently, President Joe Biden said that he had six grandchildren, telling reporters at a White House "Take Your Child To Work Day" event in April: "I'm crazy about them. And I speak to them every single day. Not a joke," according to USA Today.

On July 28, Biden publicly acknowledged a seventh grandchild for the first time — a 4-year-old daughter named Navy fathered by his son Hunter Biden in 2018.

Beau and Hunter are Biden's children from his first wife, Neilia, who died in a car accident in 1972 along with their daughter Naomi. He remarried in 1977 to Jill Biden, and their daughter, Ashley, was born in 1981.

Beau was married to Hallie Biden and had two children, Natalie and Robert "Hunter" Biden II, before his death from brain cancer in 2015.

Hunter and his ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, had three children together: Naomi, Finnegan, and Maisy. He had another son, Beau, with his wife Melissa Cohen, whom he married in 2019.

Hunter also fathered a daughter named Navy with Lunden Roberts, a former stripper, in 2018.

Biden's grandchildren call him "Pop."

In a video interview for the 2020 Democratic National Convention, Naomi said Biden calls his grandchildren every day and always picks up their calls "no matter where he is."

"He adores being a grandfather," Biden's daughter Ashley told the "Today" show in 2021. "He is so happy, even with the chaos and everything he has on his shoulders ... that gives him such joy."

Biden's oldest grandchild, Naomi Biden, held her wedding at the White House on November 19, 2022.

Naomi, 29, studied international relations at the University of Pennsylvania (where she was classmates with Tiffany Trump) and graduated from Columbia Law School in 2020. She works as an associate attorney at Arnold & Porter, a law firm in Washington, DC.

She and husband Peter Neal held their wedding on the South Lawn of the White House on November 19. It was the 19th White House wedding in history.

"Peter and I are endlessly grateful to my Nana and Pop for the opportunity to celebrate our wedding at the White House," Naomi tweeted in April 2022. "We can't wait to make our commitment to one another official and for what lies ahead."

Naomi's younger sister Finnegan also attended the University of Pennsylvania.

Finnegan, 22, graduated from Penn in 2021, earning a degree in history with a concentration in American studies. While in college, she was involved in several causes, participating in an Earth Day project for Penn's Climate Week program and successfully campaigning the administration to extend the school's pass/fail grading option deadline.

She accompanied Jill Biden to King Charles III's coronation in May.

Maisy and Sasha both played on their high school basketball team, the Vipers. On an episode of Dax Shepard's "Armchair Expert" podcast, former president Barack Obama told Shepard and co-host Monica Padman that Maisy was "like the LeBron of the league."

"She dominated," he said. "She was great, you know, and we went undefeated. The Vipers ruled."

Maisy told "Today" in 2021 that Biden came to every game that he could make it to.

"It was always funny seeing him show up when I was like 'I think I just saw you on TV about 30 minutes ago, how did you just end up here?'" she said. "And he was like 'Don't worry, I knew it was a big game today.' It's really nice knowing that he'll always be there when I want him to be there."

Like her two older sisters, 21-year-old Maisy is now in college at the University of Pennsylvania studying fine arts, according to the Daily Mail. She's also active on TikTok.

Natalie Biden turned 18 last summer and joined her grandfather to vote for the first time in the midterm elections.

Biden took Natalie to visit the University of Pennsylvania in October, the Daily Mail reported. She graduated from high school in May and will attend the University of Pennsylvania in the fall, according to AP News.

Natalie's younger brother, 17-year-old Robert "Hunter" Biden, is named for his uncle.

Hunter's confirmation took place in April at Saint Joseph on the Brandywine Church, the Catholic church where his father Beau is buried.

He attended church with Biden in Rehoboth Beach, where the president and first lady have a vacation home, in July.

Biden's youngest grandson Beau, who is 3 years old, can often be found in his arms.

Naomi and Maisy have referred to their half-brother as the "love of my life."

In July, Biden publicly acknowledged his seventh grandchild, a 4-year-old daughter named Navy fathered by his son Hunter, for the first time.

In May 2019, Lunden Roberts filed a paternity suit claiming that Hunter was the father of her child born in August 2018, which Hunter denied. In November 2019, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported DNA tests had confirmed "with scientific certainty" that Hunter was the father of the baby.

The baby's identity was sealed by an Arkansas circuit court as a protective measure. Hunter and Roberts reached a settlement in March 2020.

In April 2021, Roberts' attorney told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette that Hunter had not met the child, nor had the president and first lady, and filed a contempt motion claiming Hunter withheld evidence and and ignored the court's previous rulings. They reached another settlement in June 2023.

In his memoir "Beautiful Things," Hunter wrote that he had "no recollection" of his encounter with Roberts, writing that "the other women I'd been with during rampages since my divorce were hardly the dating type. We would satisfy our immediate needs and little else."

He added: "I was a mess, but a mess I've taken responsibility for."

Biden publicly acknowledged that he has seventh grandchildren for the first time in a statement to People magazine on July 28, saying that "Jill and I only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy." He added that Hunter and Roberts are "working together to foster a relationship that is in the best interests of their daughter."
