President Joe Biden and his wife, first lady Jill Biden, have refused to acknowledge that they have a 7th grandchild.
The child, Navy Joan Roberts, is Hunter Biden's daughter.
In addition, the Biden administration and staff have been asked to carry on as if the child doesn't exist.
This week, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said she did not "have anything to share" when she was asked whether the president considers his daughter with former stripper Lunden Roberts to be one of his grandchildren.
A reporter asked Jean-Pierre about a recent New York Times story that profiled Hunter Biden’s relationship with Roberts.
"There was a story in the New York Times about Hunter Biden’s daughter in Arkansas. Does the president acknowledge this little girl as his granddaughter?" the reporter from the Wall Street Journal asked.
"I don’t have anything to share from here," Jean-Pierre said.

"The report said President Biden’s aides were reportedly instructed to ignore Hunter Biden’s estranged daughter when numbering his grandchildren," Breitbart reports.
The report said:
His public image is centered around his devotion to his family — including to Hunter, his only surviving son. In strategy meetings in recent years, aides have been told that the Bidens have six, not seven, grandchildren, according to two people familiar with the discussions.
"The in-depth report in the New York Times profiled Hunter Biden’s former lover and her quest to reach a child support settlement for their daughter, Navy Joan," reported Breitbart.
Hunter Biden's legal team requested that Navy Joan abandon the Biden name. I'm sure that wasn't a hard one to agree upon. I wouldn't want that name either.
Additionally, Lunden Roberts will be taking some of Hunter's paintings as part of the settlement. Some of his works have sold for more than $500,000.
