There’s trouble in paradise. The daughter of Joe Biden has filed for a divorce from her husband after being married for 13 years. Ashley Biden filed for divorce from her husband, Howard Krein, in a Philadelphia court on Monday. People reported the inside scoop on the divorce: Ashley Biden, the daughter of former President Joe Biden and former first lady Dr. Jill Biden, has reportedly filed for divorce from her husband, Dr. Howard Krein, after 13 years of marriage. On Monday, Aug. 11, Ashley, 44 — who married Krein, 58, on June 2, 2012 — filed the documents in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported, citing her representative. On the same day, Ashley posted a since-deleted photo of herself walking through a park, giving a thumbs up on her Instagram Stories, while Beyoncé’s “Freedom” played in the background, per the outlet. The former first daughter had also reposted the quote, “New life, new beginnings means new boundaries. New ways of being that won’t look or sound like they did before,” on Instagram, set to the tune of Ms. Lauryn Hill’s “Freedom Time,” the newspaper noted. As previously reported by PEOPLE, Ashley and Krein tied the knot at the steepled St. Joseph on the Brandywine Roman Catholic Church, in Greenville, Delaware, in a ceremony combining the bride’s Catholic traditions and the groom’s Jewish ones. Afterward, the newlyweds and around 200 family members and close friends headed to the Biden family’s lakeside home in nearby Wilmington for a reception and dinner served family-style in the backyard.
