The couple has spoken precisely about the secret of their success together, who are no strangers to the stress that work in politics can generate in a relationship, and both agree that it is the support and mutual strength that make them unbreakable.

“Everybody says that marriage is 50/50.

Well sometimes it has to be 70/30.

Thank God that when I am really depressed, she intervenes, and when she is really depressed, I can intervene ”, he added.

The first lady returns the compliment and has pointed to the past of misfortunes, especially that of her husband, as a great unifying force: “Everything we have gone through together, the ups and downs and certainly the tragedy and loss.

There is that quote that says that sometimes you become stronger because of the blows that life has given you.

That is what we try to achieve ”.

Jill Biden refers to the tragic 1972 accident that killed Joe Biden's first wife, Neilia, and their one-year-old daughter, Noemi.

His two sons survived that misfortune, Beau, who died in 2015 from a brain tumor at age 46, and Hunter, 50, but whose life has been surrounded by controversy since he was removed from the Army for his addictions.

Besides Hunter, there is also Ashley, 39 years old and the only daughter in common who has the marriage.

But personal misfortunes aren't the only thing holding the presidential couple together.

Also that Jill Biden continue with her work as a university professor.

Although Dr. Jill (a title given by her doctorate) is teaching the classes via telematics due to the situation due to the coronavirus, it is the first time in the history of the United States that a first lady exercises her work outside the White House.

"That's my passion, it's my life," Jill Biden told

People

about the juggling she does, interspersing her work as a teacher and her work as first lady.

A decision that Joe Biden shares from the beginning.

“I am glad that you have kept your profession.

It is very important that she be an educator, although she took two years off when we got married [in June 1977] because the children were young, it is important that she has her independence and dedicates herself to the things that matter to her.

However, we always share each other's dreams ”.

The president is clear that both are capable of carrying out their functions independently, but if they are together, everything works out better.

"Each of us could do our job, but not as well as we do together," he said.

“I don't think I would have continued to be involved in public life without her.

Jill came at a really important time and brought my family back together.

She is the glue that holds it together, and I knew I wanted to marry her shortly after meeting her.

[…] It's not that we don't fight and argue sometimes.

I'm just lucky. "

"Well, after 43 years of marriage, there really isn't much else to fight for," the first lady finished with a smile.
