Jill Biden‘s ex-husband Bill Stevenson has a theory for President Joe Biden’s frequent gaffes and it has little to do with his age. As quoted by a New York Post article, Stevenson said probably the lies and the exaggerations caught up with him and Joe Biden does not know what’s real and what’s not. “Maybe he doesn’t know what’s real and what’s not real.I think the reality has disappeared in many ways. I think it’s catching up. You enhance and lie and let people down and you lose [a sense of] what is real and not real,” NYP quoted Bill and added that the White House did not respond to it.
By the ‘lies’, Bill referred to his earlier claims that Joe Biden stole Jill from him — a claim that was busted and called fake several times. Bill claimed that Jill and Joe Biden’s relationship started as an affair as Jill at that time was still married to Bill. According to Bill’s story, Bill and Jill got married in 1970 and two years later, they were working on then-New Castle Country Councilman Joe Biden’s first campaign for the Senate.
Going by this version of the story, Biden was then married to his first wife Neilia who died along with their one-year-old daughter Naomi in a car crash between the election and Biden taking his Senate seat, DailyMail reported earlier.
Bill’s story says the “affair” started in 1974 when Biden was 31, Jill was 23 and Bill was 26. “I asked Jill to go with me and she said no — she had things to do, she had to look after Joe’s kids, Beau and Hunter… I had no idea she and Joe were that kind of friendly,” Bill claimed recounting an episode.
But this version has been shredded and the official version is that Joe Biden saw a picture of Jill in 1975 after Jill’s marriage ended. This version also includes a blind date that was reportedly organized by Joe Biden’s brother. They got married in 1977.
Bill recently commented on Jill Biden pushing Joe for the presidential race and said this is not the Jill he knew.
