Hunter Biden recently shared a difficult update regarding his father, former President Joe Biden, revealing that his prostate cancer has progressed to his bones. During a candid interview with the BBC, Hunter expressed how challenging it is for the family to witness the former president struggle with the debilitating disease.
Hunter noted that the situation is painful and observed that his father rarely complains despite the severity of the illness. Nevertheless, he highlighted that Joe Biden remains the heart of their family, continuing to be a dedicated father and grandfather.
Joe Biden first went public with his diagnosis in May 2025, just months after departing the White House. At the time, he remained hopeful about his medical treatment and the effectiveness of his care. Since his diagnosis, the former president has maintained a low profile, focusing on his health and spending time with loved ones. This update follows a tumultuous period that included the end of his re-election campaign in July 2024, which eventually led to Kamala Harris becoming the Democratic nominee before Donald Trump won the November 2024 election. Hunter’s recent comments suggest a significant decline in his father’s condition.
