The reporting
Hunter Biden said former President Joe Biden’s prostate cancer has metastasized into his bones “and further,” causing significant pain and debility. In a BBC interview broadcast late Friday, Hunter said his 83-year-old father’s condition is “not good” and that the illness is hard for the family to watch. The update follows Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis last year and comes as he continues to comment publicly on political and public issues. Hunter said Biden remains active despite the pain, but added that he wishes his father would complain more about his symptoms.
