More Trouble For Hunter Biden - Updated

It's now been a week since Hunter's quickie marriage became public and the bride and groom have been staying out of the spotlight. I've googled them a couple of times, out of curiosity, wondering, for example, where will they live? Is there a picture of them together? Has Melissa met Joe and Jill yet? There's been no info on any of that, but things might be getting more complicated for Hunter. The following was posted by Page Six a couple of hours ago, under a headline that says "Hunter Biden accused of fathering child with Arkansas woman:"

An Arkansas woman claims Hunter Biden is the father of her child — and she’s suing to prove it.

Lunden Alexis Roberts, 28, filed a petition for paternity and child support against Joe Biden’s lawyer son, saying she gave birth to his kid, “Baby Doe,” in August 2018, according to court papers.

The two-page suit was filed in Independence County, Arkansas, on May 28 — nearly two weeks after Hunter tied the knot with a South African woman named Melissa Cohen.

Roberts wants a court to establish that the 49-year-old father of three is her baby’s biological dad. She is also seeking child support and for him to provide health insurance for the now-10-month-old infant. All out-of-pocket expenses would be split between the two parents, the filing said.

The petition does not say how Roberts and Hunter met or how long they were together.

But the birth of the child came while Hunter was in a relationship with Hallie Biden, his late brother Beau’s wife. The former in-laws started dating in 2017 and split in April, Page Six exclusively reported.

Roberts’ attorney Clint Lancaster said his client “values her privacy.”

“She really does not want this to be a media spectacle. She does not want this to affect Joe Biden’s campaign,” Lancaster told the Arkansas Democrat Gazette. “She just wants this baby to get financial support from the baby’s father.”

The lawyer said they haven’t been able to serve Hunter with the legal papers so far.

“We have been in contact with Hunter Biden’s attorney. We have attempted to work with Hunter and his attorney to settle this issue but that has not been successful,” Lancaster said. “We are attempting to serve Mr. Biden.”

Hunter could not be immediately reached. (This is the article in its entirety.)

Sounds like Hunter Biden has a DNA test in his future. Can this story be true? Maybe. A posting at the website of a newspaper called the Arkansas Democrat Gazette has more details, read it here. You can read my post about Hunter's recent marriage here.

Update: I admit I had been wondering if Hunter Biden had really had a relationship with a woman living in Arkansas. Then I saw an article titled "Lunden Roberts: Five Fast Facts You Need To Know," which included this:

Roberts was living in Washington D.C. two years ago studying crime scene investigation in graduate school and working with the FBI, according to a family member’s Facebook post. It is not clear what school she was attending to get her master’s degree. Public records show she was living in D.C. and Virginia from 2015 to 2018. (Read the article here.)

The petition for paternity and child support includes an August, 2018 birth date for the baby, meaning conception happened sometime in November-December, 2017, when Roberts was living in the D.C./Virginia area, which also happens to be where Hunter Biden lives. Now things look a bit clearer. In an article last week reporting on Hunter's secret May marriage, the Washington Post referred to his "messy personal life." Things just got a lot messier.
