Lawyers mock Hunter Biden’s art-for-child-support deal: ‘Can’t pay for milk with his paintings’
Hunter Biden, 53 has settled his ongoing child custody dispute with baby mama Lunden Roberts by striking a rather strange compromise.
The beleaguered First Son will not give his love-child Navy Roberts, his last name – as requested by Lunden.
But the amateur artist will give her one of his paintings.
A bizarre clause in the settlement stipulates that Hunter provide Navy, 4, with the proceeds from an undisclosed number of his novice works for an undisclosed period of time.
And lucky Navy. She can even keep one of his abstract masterpieces for herself, and save it for her personal collection or in a “gallery designated by Lunden Roberts.”
Last week, The Post reported that a source close to the first son saying Roberts had agreed to a reduced monthly payment of $5,000 from $20,000.
Famed New York divorce attorney Raoul Felder called the artistic arrangement, “preposterous.”
“I’ve done over 3,000 cases in my lifetime, and you get all kinds of experiences,” he told The Post
“But I’ve never heard anything like giving a child a painting for child support. Child support is not supposed to be based on making the child an art collector. Mothers need support. You can’t pay for milk with a painting. The landlord doesn’t want your paintings.”
Attorney and author Jeffrey S. Stephens, who co-wrote divorce guide, “The Road to Splitsville” was also shocked.
“Put me down for laughing out loud,” he told The Post. “I’ve done celebrity divorces that aren’t nearly this weird.'”
Stephens, who is based in Greenwich, Conn, has overseen divorcing celebrity clients making creative settlements in terms of their children’s future, but none with sets of abstracts.
One wealthy client who split from his wife of many years paid for extras like trips overseas or culinary school tuition.
“I had one divorcing couple where the daughter wanted to open a diner, so they bought her a diner. These things happen, but they are always backed by the gold standard. The money is there,” said Stephens, adding that Biden’s paintings aren’t guaranteed to be worth anything.
