Former Vice President Joe Biden’s surviving son, Hunter, is squandering his family’s money on hookers, strip clubs, drugs, booze and gifts to multiple lovers, according to explosive new divorce papers obtained by The Post.
The accusations, filed last week by Hunter’s soon-to-be ex-wife, Kathleen Biden, offer a peek at the sordid, big-money accusations being flung behind the scenes in the popular veep’s squeaky-clean-seeming family.

“His spending rarely relates to legitimate family expenses, but focuses on his own travel (at times multiple hotel rooms on the same night), gifts for other women, alcohol, strip clubs, or other personal indulgences,” Kathleen says in papers filed in DC Superior Court on Feb. 23.
In citing what she describes as her husband’s whoring and spending, Kathleen is seeking to limit Hunter to a $5,000-a-month allowance. She’s demanding that she and their three daughters in turn receive a $20,000 monthly allowance.
“Throughout the parties’ separation Mr. Biden has created financial concerns for the family by spending extravagantly on his own interests (including drugs, alcohol, prostitutes, strip clubs, and gifts for women with whom he has sexual relations), while leaving the family with no funds to pay legitimate bills,” Kathleen says of Hunter in her filing.
The divorce-paper vitriol follows an already spectacularly tawdry breakup — one that may well have had a role in the 2016 presidential elections.
Joe Biden’s younger son, Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, died of brain cancer in May 2015 at age 46, leaving behind two children and his wife, Hallie.
 Beau Biden died of brain cancer in May 2015. His wife, Hallie, has since struck up a romance with Beau’s brother, Hunter.CNP Two months later, Kathleen asked hubby Hunter to leave. It later emerged that Hunter had begun dating his sister-in-law, Beau’s new widow, Hallie, as first reported by Page Six.
Kathleen and Hunter formally separated in October 2015 — right around the time that Joe Biden, crediting his ongoing grief over Beau, said he would not run for president.
A Biden family spokesperson did not immediately address whether Hunter’s very complicated home life also contributed to Joe’s decision not to run.
Kathleen’s cash grab comes after Hunter allegedly blew through $122,000 in just two months, her papers say. Meanwhile, he cut back the money he sent to his wife and kids to $17,000 from $75,000 a month, her papers say.

Kathleen’s papers do not name names of her husband’s purported paramours. She does claim that if the court doesn’t rein in Hunter’s spending soon, she and the kids will soon be broke.
Hunter has already “maxed out available cash advances” on his American Express card, the filing says.
And the family is in a deep financial hole. They owe $313,970 in taxes, have a double mortgage on their home and recently bounced three checks to a housekeeper, according to the filing.
The filing makes reference to a “large” $80,000 diamond that Hunter was holding on to. When Kathleen tried to get him to put the bauble in a safe deposit box, he claimed he no longer had it, the filing says.
Hunter’s attorney, Sarah Mancinelli, declined to comment on the allegations. She said in a statement, “Hunter and Kathleen have been separated for some time and are in the process of finalizing a divorce. Hunter loves and admires Kathleen as a person, a mother, and a friend. He hopes their privacy can be respected at this time.”
