Joe Biden has been accused of photoshopping himself into a picture of his family celebrating Easter Sunday.

The former President was all smiles in the holiday snap which featured his wife Jill and some of their relatives outside their Delaware home.


“We wish everyone celebrating today a peaceful and joyful Easter,” he captioned a photo that he shared on X to his 38 million followers.

However, many were quick to spot something off about the 82-year-old’s appearance.

Some pointed out that the former President, seated at the top of the outdoor staircase wearing a navy blue suit, looked out of place.

Critics said that Biden’s outfit looked far too formal in comparison to his family - who were all dressed casually.

Others noted that the 46th President’s hand appeared to be “floating” behind one of his grandchildren, whilst the lighting was also deemed strange by several users.

“This looks photoshopped!” New York Times Best-Selling Author Brigitte Gabriel commented underneath the post.

One user wrote on X: “This is photoshop. Biden's face is brightly lit from top/bottom.

“Everyone else’s is diffused (shaded) Biden has no discernible shadow. Jill casts a shadow, Biden does not. Super awkward body position.”

Others pointed out other supposed errors with the picture, claiming that Biden's torso was edited in above the top step.

“Fake much like most of his administration. The woman in the yellow shirt you can see her knees,” someone wrote.

“She is sitting on the top step. Same with the guy on the left in the grey sweater with his elbow on his knee. Also top step. No way Joe was in this photo sitting or standing.”

However, another user defended Biden against the photoshopping accusations.

They wrote: “I don't think Biden was actually photoshopped into this pic (the hand is on the guy's back in front of him), but he still looks as photoshopped as they come.”

Since leaving the White House, Biden has devoted a large portion of his time in Delaware.

He has appeared on occasion for public events, including a model UN conference in New York, and even a St Patrick's Day celebration close to his home.

His advisers have claimed that Biden heads to Washington DC once a week as he intends to allocate more time to his family - as well as focusing on his legacy.
