Overview

  • Local rules in Philadelphia keep divorce complaints sealed, preventing public access to any details or grounds of the filing.

  • Biden and Krein met in 2010 through her late brother Beau, married in June 2012 in Greenville, Delaware, and lived together in Philadelphia without children.
  • Biden holds a Master’s in Social Work and has led community programs in Philadelphia, while Krein practices as an otolaryngologist and plastic surgeon at Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals.
