Ashley Biden, the daughter of former President Joe Biden, has stepped into a new and challenging chapter of her personal life, announcing her decision to file for divorce from her husband of over thirteen years, Dr. Howard Krein, a plastic surgeon, according to court records obtained from Philadelphia’s Court of Common Pleas.
At forty-four, Ashley finds herself navigating not only the end of a long-standing marriage but also the intense public scrutiny that comes with being the daughter of one of the nation’s most prominent political figures. Over the years, her life has been lived partially in the shadow of her father’s career, which has seen him ascend from Delaware senator to Vice President and eventually President of the United States.
