Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden affair with brother’s widow exposed

Hunter Biden had a controversial affair with his brother Beau’s grieving widow Hallie, while exchanging raunchy texts, ‘partying’, and even renting a house with her sister, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

Hallie Biden’s older sister, Elizabeth Secundy, who was recently separated from her husband of 15 years, referred to Hunter as her ‘prince’ and told him she loved him, in a series of text messages dating back to 2016.

The pair’s relationship was revealed in files and emails recovered from Hunter’s laptop – the contents of which became public last year after it was abandoned at a Delaware computer shop.

While Hunter has promised to reveal details of his personal life and struggles with alcohol and drugs in his upcoming memoir, Beautiful Things, it is unclear whether Hunter has included details of his relationship with Secundy.

The embattled father-of-five, now 51, split with his first wife Kathleen in 2015. When his brother Beau died of brain cancer that year, he became close to his grieving sister-in-law.

He and Hallie became a couple in 2016, according to an interview Hunter gave to the New Yorker two years ago.

The unconventional relationship was first acknowledged publicly in March 2017, with Joe Biden issuing a statement giving his blessing to Hunter and Hallie, 46.

But emails and texts from Hunter’s abandoned laptop, logged on spreadsheets and reviewed by DailyMail.com, reveal his romantic relationship with his sister-in-law was even more complicated and scandalous.

A text message exchange recovered from the laptop hard drive revealed a sexual conversation between Hunter and Secundy from September 2016 – at the time he would have been dating Hallie.

Hunter offered to teach Secundy ‘how to masturbate’ and referenced buying her ‘panties’.

Secundy, now 49, also referred to Hunter as her ‘prince’ and told him she loved him in the texts.

Files on the laptop suggest the relationship continued well into 2018, with one document showing they had rented a home together starting in July that year.

Hunter’s love life has already been a source of several scandals in the years since his split from his first wife Kathleen, the mother of his three daughters.

After raising some eyebrows for dating his sister-in-law, the former lobbyist was then revealed to have fathered a child with a DC stripper whose paternity he initially denied, and later married his current wife, Melissa, just six days after meeting her in 2019. They too now have a one-year-old child, named after Hunter’s late brother.

Hunter found himself in hot water once again in 2020 when his laptop, that he reportedly had left at a Delaware computer store for repairs, fell into the hands of several media organizations and the FBI.

Photos recovered from the device showed him posing with a crack pipe in his mouth and partying with prostitutes.

Documents from the laptop also exposed Hunter’s controversial business dealings with Chinese oil giant CEFC, leading to a federal tax fraud investigation and a probe by the Senate Intelligence Committee into undue political influence by the Chinese.

The newly unearthed text messages between Hunter and Secundy could throw him into yet another controversy and cast doubt on the timeline of his relationships he has previously given in interviews.

Hunter’s older brother – Joe Biden’s eldest son – Beau died from brain cancer in May 2015 at the age of 46, shaking the family to its core.

Hunter had struggled with drug and alcohol abuse for years, with Beau – a former Delaware attorney general – often helping him back to sobriety and encouraging him to go to rehab.

Two months after Beau’s death, Hunter fell off the wagon again and moved out of his home after breaking his sobriety pact with his wife Kathleen, according to an interview he gave to the New Yorker in 2019.

The couple’s divorce papers say they formally separated in October 2015, but it wasn’t until December the following year that Kathleen officially filed to end their marriage.

Files recovered from Hunter’s laptop show the president’s son drafted several long, emotional messages to his friends and family he was arguing with, and saved them as notes on his computer.

In one undated note, Hunter refers to his ex-wife accusing him of ‘f***ing’ Hallie the day after her husband died.

‘It really really was devastating to me that you adopted Kathleen’s narrative: ‘Dad and Aunt Hallie (K’s words exactly to me tonight on phone with girls in room) were F***ING the day after Uncle Beau died,’ he wrote.

It is unclear who the note was addressed to and whether Hunter ended up sending it.

Another email also revealed Hallie had accused Hunter of being unfaithful to her early on in their relationship, while she had been trying to get him help for substance abuse.

The email appears to contradict Hunter’s previous statement about when he began his relationship with Hallie. In a 2019 interview with The New Yorker Hunter claimed their romantic relationship began in the fall of 2016.

But the email suggests Hallie and Hunter were already romantically involved in July of that year.

‘Hunter, you cheated on me,’ Hallie wrote in an email dated July 18, 2016.

‘You continued to cheat on me while I worked with [redacted] etc to get you help. Not only did you cheat on me, Viagra and Cialis, you actually bought her expensive gifts.

‘I am stronger than you think. I’m not standing by while you treat me like dirt.’

In an interview with the New Yorker addressing the relationship, Hunter said that he went on a vacation in the Hamptons with Hallie and her two children in August 2016 and started to become close to her.

But he said it wasn’t until a few weeks later in the fall that they became a couple.

He told the magazine he was on the way to rehab in Arizona but ended up going on a binge in Los Angeles after taking crack he bought from a man in a homeless encampment.

He said he eventually checked into a rehab centre in Arizona and Hallie flew to meet him at a resort spa after he checked out, where the two decided to begin their romantic relationship.

However, texts on his laptop show that he was already having extremely flirtatious conversations with Hallie’s sister by then.

On September 8 that year, Hunter wrote to Secundy: ‘We should shower together by FT [FaceTime] every morning or night when we’re up at 3- stress relief – I’ll teach you how to masturbate.’

‘Wow re-reading that I can see how Joel [Secundy’s 51-year-old husband] might have some doubts,’ he added.

‘I’m up actually I’ve not gone down – when o [sic] get home tonight I’m calling you from the shower. Ly [Love you].’

Secundy separated from Joel, her husband and father of her three children, in 2015 after 15 years of marriage. Their divorce was finalized three years later.

The next day Hunter texted Secundy telling her he had been up late watching ‘bad porno movies like I’m 13’, and referred to buying her ‘panties.’

‘I have lulu panties. They are my only non Grammies besides the ones from you,’ Secundy texted him.

The conversations showed Secundy had told Hunter she loved him, and repeatedly asked him for money.

On September 17 she wrote: ‘I’m at Hal’s alone for next 24hrs… call me,’ and ‘LYSM [Love You So Much]’.

Later that day she wrote ‘your [sic] my only prince. I’m totally coming back for you.’

Hunter replied: ‘Well get in a mood- not quite sure what mine is yet – but it’s always nice to have you fun and loving me… I’m going to need it I think- except from your sister.’

A friend with knowledge of Hunter’s relationships told DailyMail.com that Beau’s former home soon became a very different environment with Hunter, Hallie and Secundy ‘partying’ there regularly.

‘They were living at Beau’s old house and it just became a party house. They were obviously up 24/7 just partying,’ the source said. ‘They would sit out on the patio like crackheads almost.

Hunter’s split with his wife only became public in December that year, when Kathleen filed for divorce citing Hunter’s alleged drug-taking and use of prostitutes.

His flirtation with Secundy did not appear to have stopped his relationship with Hallie from progressing.

By March 2017, when several newspapers reported Hunter was in a relationship with his brother’s widow, Joe Biden confirmed the news.

‘We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness,’ he told the New York Post at the time. ‘They have mine and Jill’s full and complete support and we are happy for them.’

The texts on Hunter’s laptop also show Secundy asked Hunter and her sister for money repeatedly, saying she was left near-penniless after her breakup with her husband.

On August 18, 2016, Secundy wrote to Hunter saying: ‘hey…. can you send me more money? sorry to ask. i promise it won’t be much longer. Joel took that job. xxoo’

A week later she wrote, ‘f*** I don’t even have any money for parking. This is a nightmare that I can’t wake up from.’

Months later, on April 10, 2017, she sent Hunter another message saying: ‘are you able to give me $500?’

She also messaged Hunter and Hallie in a three-way conversation on April 26, 2017, saying: ‘hunt/hallie can you please hire me now …..so i can get my life together and then i will find my own job and unburden both of you.’

Hunter replied to the two of them: ‘Hallie it’s called leverage.’

Secundy replied: ‘so is that a yes? i hate asking for money everyday. it’s the worst feeling.’

Despite the seemingly long-term relationship, it turned out the president’s son was unable to remain faithful to either Hallie or her sister.

In December 2017, he conceived a child with Lunden Roberts, a reported former stripper at a Washington DC club he frequented.

But a year later the confusing tangle continued, as Hunter and Secundy signed a rental agreement together on a $2,200-per-month, three-bed colonial townhouse in Greenville, Delaware, on July 3, 2018, according to documents on the abandoned laptop.

The rental agreement, listing the two as tenants and Patterson-Schwartz & Associates as the landlord’s agent, was from August 2018 to July 2019.

The wood-floored home has three bedrooms and three bathrooms and sits on a quiet country road in the small town outside Wilmington.

Emails from the time suggest that when Hunter and Secundy rented the property, his and Hallie’s relationship had disintegrated.

On August 2, 2018 Hunter wrote to Hallie telling her ‘I need you as a friend Hallie- you can love romantically whomever you want.’

‘But I have no friends that I need like I need you. I thought we agreed that we would never part ways and certainly that we would never forbid access to my family, that we would ignore and not speak to one another – that we would never make decisions unilaterally that cause harm,’ the email said.

Hallie and Hunter’s eventual and final split did not become public until April 2019. Neither of them commented on the story at the time.

‘I don’t think she’ll ever be the same again after Beau passed, but she was definitely better after splitting with Hunter,’ the friend told DailyMail.com. ‘She definitely parented more, engaged with trying to get the kids straight in school.

‘Hunter was always about to burst. He would have blown up whether Beau was alive or not. Hunter was always doing some bad, dumb, stupid stuff.
