Biden says granddaughter scheduled for Wednesday C-section

He's leaving the White House in less than two weeks, but President Biden is poised to enter a new personal chapter this week as a first-time great-grandfather.

"I'm about to be a great-grandfather, Jesus od," Biden said in an interview with USA Today's Susan Page, published Wednesday.

His granddaughter, Naomi Biden, is scheduled for a C-section on Wednesday, according to the commander in chief.

The president's eldest grandchild announced on Election Day last year that she was expecting her first child.

“(We) voted,” Biden, 30, wrote on Instagram in November.

Naomi Biden is the daughter of the president's son, Hunter Biden. She married her husband, Peter Neal, in a ceremony held at the White House in 2022.
