Hunter Biden's ex-wife claims obliviousness to emails, business dealings: 'I had my head buried in the sand'

Hunter Biden's ex-wife Kathleen Buhle broke her silence in recent days, appearing on mainstream news outlets to promote her upcoming memoir release "If We Break," but escaping Biden family controversies proved difficult for Buhle, who sat down with CBS' senior culture correspondent Anthony Mason to detail the chapter of her life spent with Hunter.

The interview, aired on "CBS Mornings" early Thursday, delved into Buhle's life as a Biden and her marriage to Hunter before probing into his shady business dealings.

Buhle, who was married to the president's son from 1993 to 2017, claimed she knew nothing of the shady goings-on though a subpoena obtained by CBS News revealed back records request dating back to 2014 – when the couple were still married.

"I had my head pretty deeply buried in the sand," she said, later claiming she "barely understood" what Hunter had done.

Hunter's laptop, largely ignored by mainstream outlets until recent months, first raised suspicion after being dropped off at a Delaware repair shop in 2019. Since then, the controversy has escalated, prompting calls for a special counsel.
