"Is He Really 80? Biden Spotted Shirtless on the Beach"

Summer Vacation at Delaware Rehoboth Beach
Wearing a Baseball Cap Backwards and Sunglasses

U.S. President Joe Biden, who has started his summer vacation, was spotted sunbathing shirtless on a beach in Delaware.

The 80-year-old President Biden was wearing sunglasses and no shirt in the photos. Like any other beachgoer, he wore bright blue trunks and blue tennis shoes.

The photos were revealed on the 30th of last month (local time) when Eric Geller, a reporter for Messenger, posted three pictures of President Biden on his Twitter account.

Biden was wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap worn backwards, which bore the logo of the Beau Biden Foundation, named after his eldest son Beau Biden who passed away in 2015.

At the time, Geller told Politico, "I heard that President Biden and his wife were enjoying a vacation at Rehoboth Beach in Delaware, so I went to the site and witnessed President Biden shirtless, taking photos with my phone."

He added, "There were Secret Service (SS) agents around President Biden, but the citizens were not disturbed."

Among the three photos he released, another showed President Biden sitting under a blue parasol with his hand on his head. In the third photo, Biden was standing holding a water bottle with his cap worn backwards, pictured alongside another female tourist at the beach.

Politico reported, "It has been quite a long time since this country has seen a shirtless president," noting that former President Barack Obama was captured paddleboarding during a 2020 vacation in Hawaii, which caused a stir on the internet.

Previously, President Obama also enjoyed a vacation shirtless showing his muscles in his hometown of Hawaii in 2008 as president-elect.

AFP noted that unlike past viral photos of President Vladimir Putin riding a horse shirtless or doctored images of former President Donald Trump, President Biden appeared to be sunbathing rather than showing off his physique.

In the past, former President Nicolas Sarkozy was photographed shirtless on a beach, and then-Prime Minister Putin also revealed his masculinity by sharing photos of himself fishing shirtless.

AFP reported that with President Biden being the oldest president in U.S. history and running for re-election next year, there is high interest in his health, and these photos provide a closer look at his physique.

President Biden arrived at his Delaware residence on the 28th of last month and plans to enjoy his vacation there throughout the week.

According to U.S. economic media Business Insider, the Biden couple purchased a six-bedroom house near Rehoboth Beach in 2017, where they are known to relax on weekends or during vacations.

Earlier, on the 31st of last month, President Biden was spotted enjoying a bike ride with First Lady Jill Biden at Gordon’s Pond State Park near Rehoboth Beach.
