Hunter Biden’s ex-girlfriend has revealed how the president’s son broke up with her via email following their whirlwind romance.
Zoe Kestan, 31, began dating Biden, 54, after meeting him while working at a New York strip club in 2017.
Their drug-fueled romance unfolded in luxurious hotels across the country and ended up forming part of court testimony against Biden in his tax evasion investigation.
Kestan told the New York Times how their 11-month relationship ended in November 2018, after she traveled to a Massachusetts rehab center to visit Biden, who was receiving treatment for drug addiction.
Kestan, a lingerie designer who called herself Weedslut, said it was clear the ketamine therapy she was receiving wasn’t working and the two went out to try to get some powder cocaine that Biden could cook and turn into crack.
But the next day, when they separated, an argument broke out in which Biden admitted that he had “hurt” Kestan.
The two did not speak for several months, but the death knell on their relationship came when Kestan texted Biden to congratulate him on his daughter’s high school graduation.
“Hi Zoe, I married the love of my life and I am happier than ever,” Biden responded in an email.
Hunter Biden’s ex-girlfriend Zoe Kestan has revealed how the president’s son broke up with her via email following their whirlwind romance.
‘I have started a new life with my beautiful wife and I ask that you respect my privacy. Wish you all the best.’
Biden married his second wife Melissa Cohen Biden in May 2019. During his relationship with Kestan, he also had another child with Arkansas woman Lunden Roberts.
Kestan’s feelings about his time with Biden are complicated, something that was exacerbated when their relationship came under public dissection following Biden’s tax and gun charges.
Details about their relationship, including intimate images of the couple, ended up on the Internet after Biden’s laptop was confiscated.
“I was faced with the fact that the only thing I know about my identity now is that I am still affected by this person, and some people around me think of me only in relation to him,” Kestan said.
She explained that his frequent appearance in the news made it difficult to forget him and that she felt “very attracted” to the president’s son from the moment she met him.
The couple first crossed paths when Kestan offered her a private dance at Vivid Cabaret. She was later invited to a party with Biden at a downtown hotel.
That night, the two went out to dinner and sat talking until 4 a.m., as Biden asked him about his creative work and opened up about the loss of his brother Beau, Kestan said.
The couple dated for 11 months after meeting when Kestan was working as a stripper in a New York club.
She said Biden ended their relationship in a message months after they had an argument at a Massachusetts rehab center.
He recalled how the president’s son was hit with a glass pipe every 20 minutes, but never seemed to be affected.
Their relationship deepened over the following year, and the two were frequently seen at art exhibition openings and high-end hotels.
But Kestan said there was a dark side as she recounted her frequent drug use and paranoia and how she sought the company of cam girls while she slept.
When they finally met for the first time since their breakup in court in June, Kestan was asked to testify at length about Biden’s drug use.
Kestan told the grand jury that Biden ordered him to withdraw “thousands of dollars at a time” from ATMs.
He listed a list of expensive five-star hotels in New York City, including the Soho Grand and the Four Seasons, where he had stayed with Biden.
She also detailed her West Coast hotels, which included celebrity hotspot Chateau Marmont, where the couple stayed together for a month.
In the email, Biden explained that he had moved on and married the “love of his life,” his second wife, Melissa Cohen Biden.
Kestan was forced to testify about her relationship with Biden as part of a federal investigation into her tax returns.
Despite intense media scrutiny over the contents of Biden’s laptop in particular, Kestan revealed that she was somewhat glad that their relationship had come to light.
“There is now physical evidence that we spent that time together,” he said.
Biden faced up to 25 years in prison for the weapons case and 17 years for his tax crime.
However, President Joe Biden has since pardoned his son on both charges, claiming the prosecution was politically motivated.
