Finnegan Biden, 24, was just seen with her grandma Jill Biden and A-listers like Jude Law at New York Fashion Week

First lady Jill Biden has embodied the spirit of quiet luxury throughout her time in office, and continued to do so as she kicked off New York Fashion Week at the Ralph Lauren show in Bridgehampton, New York earlier this month.
Dr Biden sported an all-black Ralph Lauren ensemble with a dazzling crystal brooch, looking chic as she posed with fellow guests. A-listers Jude Law, Usher, Kacey Musgraves and Tom Hiddleston were also present – but one young woman in particular caught the attention of politics watchers: President Joe Biden’s granddaughter, Finnegan Biden.

The younger Biden, who turned 24 on September 9, looked elegant in a floor-length floral dress, which she paired with a black blazer and black boots. Like her grandma, she opted for minimal jewellery, layering two dainty necklaces for an effortless look.

The duo was seated front row for the fashion show and, a day later, attended the Fashion For Our Future march in New York’s Bryant Park. The first lady delivered a speech giving props to a fashion community that “always comes together when it matters most”, and urged attendees to vote.

Despite Finnegan’s prominence during the NYFW events with her grandmother, she still generally prefers to keep her personal life low key, including maintaining a private Instagram account. However, here’s what we do know about the woman President Joe Biden refers to as his “secret weapon” …
