Former first daughter Ashley Biden has filed for divorce from her husband of 13 years, according to reports published this week.
The 44-year-old daughter of President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden submitted the legal filing recently. The Philadelphia Inquirer was the first to report the news.
On the same day she filed for divorce, Biden posted an Instagram story that included the song “Freedom” by Beyoncé.
The short video clip showed her walking through a park and giving a thumbs up while the song played in the background.
Ashley Biden married her husband in 2012 in Wilmington, Delaware, in a ceremony attended by family members, friends and those close to the Biden family.
At the time, Joe Biden was serving as vice president under President Barack Obama.
The wedding was a high-profile family event that drew public interest.
Speaking to People magazine ahead of the ceremony, then–Vice President Biden described his preparations for the wedding.
“I kept telling Ash, we’ve got to open up the church and practice walking up and down the aisle so I can handle it,” he said in the interview.
He also praised his future son-in-law, saying, “This is the right guy. And he’s getting a helluva woman.”
Ashley Biden met her husband through her late brother, Beau Biden, in 2010.
The two began dating soon after the introduction.
Their relationship developed quickly, and they became engaged within two years.
Friends of the couple at the time spoke favorably about their compatibility and shared values.
The wedding, held in Delaware, included personal touches organized by Joe Biden himself.
Ashley Biden recalled the day during the Democratic National Convention last year when she introduced her father.
“At the time, my dad was vice president, but he was also that dad who literally set up the entire reception,” she said, according to Fox News reporting.
She added, “He was riding around in his John Deere 4-wheeler, fixing the place settings, arranging the plants, and by the way, he was very emotional.”
She also shared a personal memory from the ceremony. “Before he walked me down the aisle, he turned to me and said he would always be my best friend. All these years later, Dad, you are still my best friend.”
The couple did not have children together during their marriage.
While they occasionally made public appearances together, both maintained relatively private lives.
