Hunter Biden has arrived at court ahead of his paternity suit hearing following a four-month affair with a former stripper.
President Biden's son is currently in a dispute with Lunden Roberts, 32, after she filed a paternity suit in Arkansas Circuit Court back in 2019 claiming the 53-year-old was father to her little girl, Navy Joan.
Hunter, who was dressed in a dark suit and tie, made his way to the Independence County Court in Batesville, Arkansas, US, via the back entrance just before 9am.
Ms Roberts, who was wearing a blue suit and sunglasses, walked through the front door 45 minutes earlier.
The dispute comes after Hunter had denied the child was his until a DNA test later confirmed he was the dad.
He agreed to start paying monthly child support to Ms Roberts following the DNA results.
However, Hunter has never met his daughter and hasn’t publicly talked about her.
The paternity case was reopened last September after Hunter asked the court to recalculate the monthly payments he was due to make after an alleged “substantial material change” in his financial situation.
Hunter has since been attempting to slash his child support payments for Navy Joan but Ms Roberts has demanded proof of his financial records including his properties, art sales and details of his taxes.
Ms Roberts' lawyers rejected Hunter's financial difficulties claiming the president's son is actually "living lavishly" and has hired an $850 per-hour lawyer to help represent him.
Clinton Lancaster, who represents Lunden, wrote in a 12-page motion: “Mr Biden claims to be nothing more than a Yale educated attorney/artist who is somewhat financially destitute and needs his child support adjusted.
“However, for an artist living on meagre means, Mr Biden is living lavishly.
"He travels the world on the safest and most comfortable airplane in existence — Air Force One."
Independence County Circuit Judge Holly Meyer ruled that Hunter Biden and MS Roberts must be present for every future hearing in the case.
And in December, Ms Roberts's lawyers filed a motion to have the girl's last name changed to Biden.
The motion said: "The Biden name is now synonymous with being well-educated, successful, financially acute, and politically powerful."
However, lawyers for Hunter claimed there is "strict proof thereof that such request is in the best interest of the child."
