Ashley Biden took the stage Monday at the Democratic National Convention where she introduced her father, President Joe Biden, who was set to address the crowd
Ashley Biden, the rarely-seen daughter of US President Joe Biden , warmed hearts as she introduced her dad at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, where he was greeted by a sea of chanting supporters on Monday.
Born in June 1981, 43-year-old Ashley is the only child of Joe and his second wife, Jill Biden. She quickly became the apple of her family's eye, with mum Jill revealing to Delaware Today magazine in 2018 how her brothers Beau and Hunter instantly took to their younger sister. After her speech, Biden took to the stage to rapturous applause and screams of "We love Joe", but paused to embrace his daughter Ashley. Pulling back from her, Joe pulled a tissue out of his pocket and wiped a tear from his face, visibly moved by her words.
The Windy City has earned the moniker 'police state' during the DNC as bike patrols, K9 units, and the Coast Guard stood watch amidst protest activity. Stepping back from the race, President Biden will cut short his DNC attendance following his Monday speech, opting for a Californian holiday while his party crowns Kamala Harris as its nominee for the November election.
