Naomi, who is known for wearing fitted clothes to her slim figure, donned loose fitting gowns during multiple occasions when she was seen in public.
As she and Neal entered a state dinner at the White House for Kenya in May, Neal appeared to be gesturing at his wife’s stomach as they posed for photos.
As she leaned into him, what appeared to be a baby bump was seen in her long, roomy pleated metallic cape and dress set from Diana Ayad.
When the couple went with President Biden to the G7 conference in Italy, Naomi donned baggy black clothes when in sight of the cameras.
At the Democratic National Convention in August, she was careful to stand behind other family members when the Biden clan joined the president on stage after his speech.
In April, Naomi wore a loose-fitting gown covered in cherry blossoms to a state dinner for Japan.
Naomi was coy about her condition.
She posed for photos with her handbag placed strategically over her stomach at the Japanese state dinner. She repeated the pose when she attended the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner a week later.
The baby would be the first Biden great-grandchild.
If President Biden had stayed in the race, it would have given him the moniker of ‘great-grandpa’ ahead of the November election. His grandkids call him ‘Pops.’
Voters had expressed concern about Biden's age. And it was his disastrous performance in a debate with Donald Trump in July - where he fumbled for words and stared into space - that resulted in party leaders pressuring him out of the presidential race.
President Biden turned 82 in November. He is the oldest American ever elected president.
Naomi Biden is the eldest daughter of Hunter Biden and his ex-wife Kathleen Buhle.
She and Peter Neal married in an opulent ceremony on the White House lawn on November 19, 2022. She was the first presidential grandchild to be married at the White House.
Naomi's sisters Finnegan and Maisey were part of the ceremony as was her half-brother Beau, who is the son of her father's second wife Melissa Cohen.
Naomi and her sisters are often seen holding Beau at family events and at the White House.
She works as a lawyer in Washington D.C.
She and Neal lived in the White House ahead of their wedding. They now live in Georgetown.
