Judge decrees baby mama Lunden Roberts will now pay Hunter Biden $5,000. per month
2023-06-21
[NYP] Hunter Biden and his baby mama have privately settled their child support dispute in Arkansas, according to a source close to the first son.

Lunden Roberts, 32, the mother of Hunter’s long-unacknowledged 4-year-old daughter, agreed to her $20,000 monthly child support payments being slashed after she showed up in person to his deposition in Little Rock last week.

Roberts’ lawyer, Clint Lancaster, told The Post late Thursday that final terms were still to be determined and declined to confirm that his client had agreed to a reduced monthly payment of $5,000.

"The case is sealed, and these are financial terms that should never be disclosed," he said, warning that leaks about details of the settlement would derail talks and end up with Hunter back in an Arkansas court on July 11.

#13  All sorts of advantages to not being close to that family.. Now Navy can be picked up at school instead of having to walk 200 feet away. Don't have to share a chair. Gets the shower to herself.

#12  “The kid has lots of love on the maternal side of the family in Batesville. They are a very, very close family. They adore her and are always going to support her … But I think everybody is disappointed that there’s not more contact [with the Biden family].

Hunter Biden’s love child snubbed again in White House stocking display
“It’s not lost on anybody that Jill Biden wrote a children’s book and [dedicated it] to her grandchildren,” the lawyer went on. “She could have kept it at that, but she named every child except Navy.

“They hung stockings for the dog at Christmas but not for Navy. That is one of the saddest things.”


They should not be sad. Navy will be a lot better off in the long run if people forget who her daddy is.

#11  IIUC, they agreed to reduce monthly payments to Roberts from $20k to $5k, and that there is a lot of closed proceedings and records activity which went on. Payoffs and promises.

#10  I agree with the lump sum unless the court artist has depicted her with a bunch of bandaged fingers.

Regardless, the kid wins. She won’t be carrying the mark of Cain until she gets married.

That says she's paying him, Rex?

#8  From $240,000 per annum to $60,000 and she doesn't get to name her kid a Biden. I smell a lump sum somewhere, serious money bought her off! The name thing was a slam-dunk, and it was a huge irritant to Jojo. Poof, all done, only money does that!

#7  WTF? Title sez SHE'S paying him. Reading the text, article again states per her lawyer that she is paying him and that they're happy for reduced payments so that Hunter won't use those funds for a personal agenda? Is this a hoax or is it that our legal system is a hoax? It's one of those..or both.

#6  This settlement eliminates the look into Hunters finances.

As it relates to this matter WRT federal taxes and child support. The underlying crimes still exist and nothing in this settlement puts them off limits for an honest prosecutor (I know) looking at them with respect to other events.

#2  ...TFA says her support payments may have been cut from $20K/month (!) to $5K/month, which is still a hell of a lot more than I make.
