First lady Jill Biden post an image on Instagram with the newborn and announced his name is William Brannon Neal, IV.
President Biden said he became a great-grandfather on Wednesday with the birth of his eldest granddaughter's first child. 'I'm a great-grandfather as of today,' the president said at a news conference in California.
'Baby boy. So I'll remember this day.'First lady Jill Biden shared a photo of the first couple with their great-grandson, and she announced his name is William Brannon Neal, IV. Mr. Biden told USA Today in an interview at the White House on Sunday that his granddaughter was scheduled to have a Cesarean section on Wednesday, saying 'I'm about to be a great-grandfather, Jesus God.'Naomi Biden, the 31-year-old daughter of the president's son Hunter, announced her pregnancy in November in a social media post to mark Election Day. She married Peter Neal at the White House in 2022, the first time a president's grandchild was wed at the White House. The newborn shares a name with Neal's brother, who was killed in 2009 by a distracted driver. The president has seven grandchildren, whom he has often said he contacts daily.The president's comments came as he was asked about his son Hunter, whom Mr. Biden pardoned last month, and his struggles with addiction. The president, along with detailing what went into his decision to pardon his son, outlined his son's work in art and engagement in prevention programs, saying, 'he's doing really well, and family's doing well.'Naomi Biden, who has lived at the White House, testified last year in her father's defense in his federal gun trial. The wide-ranging sit down interview came as Mr. Biden prepares to leave office later this month. The president said in the interview that he believes he could have won reelection against President-elect Donald Trump had he not opted to leave the race. But he acknowledged that he wasn't sure he would have the vigor to remain in office for another four years. 'So far, so good. But who knows what I'm going to be when I'm 86 years old?' Mr. Biden said.
