Hunter Biden Celebrates Seven Years Sober, Addresses White House Cocaine Bag Allegation

Hunter Biden is marking a major milestone in his recovery journey while also pushing back against critics online.

The 56-year-old shared a video on social media Monday (June 1) celebrating seven years clean and sober. "Thank you to everyone who has walked this road with me," he wrote alongside the post.

In the video message, Biden expressed his pride in the achievement, calling his sobriety "more proud of that than anything I've ever done in my life." He extended encouragement to others struggling with addiction, saying, "There's a way out. And that way out is together. I'm so proud to be a part of this community. And I'm just so grateful for all the love and support everybody has given me."

The celebration drew a critical comment from one social media user, who wrote: "Bulls–t. That was your bag of coke in the white house."

Biden replied with a lighthearted but firm rebuttal: "It most definitely was not. I would never have forgotten my drugs."

The exchange references a bag of cocaine discovered at the White House in 2023 during his father Joe Biden's presidency. Hunter has previously denied ownership of the bag during an investigation into the matter.

Recent court documents have shed light on Hunter's current whereabouts. According to filings from last month, Hunter relocated abroad following the conclusion of his father's presidential term in January. His attorney, Barry Coburn, submitted a 14-page document in a civil lawsuit regarding unpaid legal fees on April 6, noting that "Mr. Biden lives abroad" without providing additional specifics about his location.
