Ashley Biden, the daughter of President Joe Biden, has filed for divorce after 13 years of marriage, marking a significant change in her personal life.
The couple had maintained a relatively low public profile throughout their 13-year marriage, with Ashley focusing on her work in social advocacy and nonprofit leadership. The wedding itself was a family affair, with Ashley recalling her father’s direct involvement in the planning.
What Happened
“At the time, my dad was vice president, but he was also that dad who literally set up the entire reception,” she said, describing how then-Vice President Joe Biden personally organized their wedding reception details.
On the day she filed the divorce petition, Biden posted to Instagram a photograph of herself walking through a park with a thumbs up gesture, paired with Beyoncé’s song “Freedom.”
Moving Forward With New Beginnings
She accompanied the image with a caption about moving forward: “New life, new beginnings, means new boundaries. New ways of being that won’t look or sound like they did before.”
The post appeared to reference personal changes, though Biden did not directly address the divorce announcement on social media.
