We have had more updates on Joe Biden’s health now that he’s out of office than we ever had while he was in the White House.
In an interview with the BBC, Hunter Biden gave an update on his father Joe Biden’s battle with cancer.
The former first son shared that his father’s cancer is “debilitating” and is “spreading.”
The Hill reported more on Hunter’s update on his father’s cancer:
Former President Joe Biden's cancer has spread to other parts of his body, his son Hunter Biden revealed in an interview, describing the disease as "very painful" and "very debilitating."
"The cancer has spread, metastasized into his bones and further," he told the BBC's "Newsnight" Friday. "It's really sad to watch."
Several months after leaving the White House, the former president announced in May 2025 that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. At the time, his office said the cancer appeared to be "hormone-sensitive," allowing for "effective management.
Hunter Biden became emotional during the interview while discussing his father's condition, saying that watching the former president's health decline has been "really hard."
"The only thing that I'd say about my dad, about his health right now, is I wish he would complain more, because it's not good," he said.Former first lady Jill Biden said in a June "The View" appearance that, while things have "slowed down" for her husband since his diagnosis, he is still keeping busy.
Aside from a memoir slated to come out around the November midterm elections — and a late July controversy surrounding leaked audio files appearing to show the former president sharing classified information with a ghostwriter in 2016 and 2017 — former President Biden seldom weighs in on the current political landscape.

Lately, Hunter Biden has made several appearances on both news shows and podcasts.
On Friday, Mediaite reported Tucker Carlson released a trailer of an upcoming interview with Hunter:
During a teaser for an upcoming episode of The Tucker Carlson Show released Friday, Hunter Biden admitted he likes the “woken up” version of former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY).
Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s conversation with Biden, the son of former President Joe Biden, is set to be released in full on Monday. In the meantime, however, a supercut gave viewers an interesting preview.
“I love Candace [Owens],” Biden first remarked in the clip. In May, the controversial podcaster had the former first son on her show, during which she apologized for contributing to the media storm surrounding his struggle with addiction, emphasizing, “I just feel really sh*tty.”
“I like Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene,” Biden continued. “I like that there are people that have kind of woken up.”
Both Greene and Massie, despite initially supporting President Donald Trump, have since turned on him. Greene called the president a “traitor” in June, while Massie has been outspoken in his criticism on a variety of issues, including the administration’s war in Iran and its handling of the FBI files on Jeffrey Epstein.
Just last weekend, Greene posted a photo of her and her new husband Brian Glenn, Carlson, Massie, and Joe Kent, the former director of the National Counterterrorism Center who quit earlier this year in protest of the Iran war, writing, “The movement has begun,” fueling speculation about the group creating a third political party.
And on Wednesday, Carlson released a 10-point manifesto, adding to rumors he plans to run for president in 2028.
Massie has defended the younger Biden before, slamming the 2024 verdict that found him guilty on three gun-related charges. Yet Greene, in 2023, showed the GOP-led House Oversight Committee a series of increasingly graphic, minimally censored pics of the former first son, stressing, “This was prostitution.”
