Hunter Biden Opens Up About Addiction Battle and Life in the Political Spotlight

Hunter Biden is speaking out about one of the most challenging chapters of his life — his battle with addiction and the long road toward getting clean.

In a candid interview with NPR’s Scott Simon, Biden opened up about what his struggle with substance abuse has looked like, the treatments he has undergone, and how he has worked to rebuild his life.

The conversation also addressed the significant political scrutiny Biden has faced, which has played out in a very public way in recent years.

Simon’s interview gave Biden the opportunity to speak in his own words about experiences that have frequently been discussed and debated by others in political and media circles.
