Claim: A photograph authentically shows former first lady Jill Biden as a young woman.

Rating: True

A black-and-white photograph supposedly showing a young Jill Biden has circulated online for years, often with the claim that it was taken in the 1970s.

The photo of the former U.S. first lady spread on social media platforms including Facebook, X, Instagram and 9GAG.

In short, the image is authentic. It was taken in 1974 by artist and professional photographer Tom Stiltz, who posted the image on his Instagram account in 2020.

Apart from Stiltz's, the earliest known post featuring the image was shared on Aug. 19, 2020, with the caption: "Jill Biden, 1970s."

However, the original poster later clarified in the comments: "I should mention that 1970s is an estimate. I wasn't able to find a source image online to confirm. This is pulled from the DNC's coverage." Another user commented, "I knew someone would post this picture here the moment it aired," suggesting the image was shown during the 2020 Democratic National Convention, which took place from Aug. 17-19, 2020.

The photograph was indeed broadcast on Aug. 18, 2020, during the second day of the Democratic National Convention

It is very likely his wife committed suicide when she found out.

Not a beauty.

Talent can make up for beauty.

She and Hillary are shape shifters. Once they attach themselves to a host, they begin to assume their true forms.

Jack and Jill went up the hill.
They came back flushed and breathing heavily...
Joe did not know whether to lay Jill or Jack off.

Joe always wanted to be President.

Don’t hold her desire to make his dream come true against her.

Would not surprise me if she was one of those girls whose go-to attire was hot pants and halter tops.

I was in 6th grade when the tube tops came out. We had a couple of well-developed girls in class and the teacher sent them home to change.

Not clear what life did to her on the inside to turn her into Edith Wilson.

Brandon is and always has been perfectly capable of extracting the good out of everything. In fact, that's the one thing at which he excels.

Joe and Jill went up a hill
to fetch a pale of water
Jill looked down, to see the clown
sniffing someone’s daughter
