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 monthly child support payments being slashed by more than 75% — from $20,000 to less than $5,000.
She also is understood to have dropped her legal bid to change the little girl’s surname to Biden, a request rejected by Hunter’s attorneys.
The settlement was reached in a private conversation between Hunter and his former lover, who showed up in person to his deposition in Little Rock last week.
Roberts is believed to have $11,000 in savings put aside for the child from the $750,000 received from Hunter since their 2020 settlement.
Hunter applied last year to the Batesville, Ark., court to reduce his child support payments, citing reduced circumstances, but turned heads by flying into town last month in a friend’s private jet.
During contentious legal arguments, lawyers for Roberts asked the judge to jail the president’s son for contempt after he failed to produce all the financial documents they demanded to prove his newfound poverty.
Hunter, 53, initially denied paternity of Navy Joan Roberts until a DNA test in 2019 proved he was the child’s father.
In his memoir “Beautiful Things,” Hunter claimed he had “no recollection of our encounter.”
