Throughout the years, Hunter’s personal life has been tumultuous. He married Kathleen Buhle in 1993 and worked for a Delaware bank and the Commerce Department under the Clinton administration. In the following years, he faced multiple challenges, including substance abuse and infidelity.

Despite these personal struggles, Hunter remained in the public eye due to his father’s career. He went on to work with a Chinese private equity firm and a Ukrainian energy company, which raised questions about conflicts of interest.
Additionally, there were legal issues involving paternity and child support, as well as concerns over his financial decisions. His actions have raised numerous ethical and legal questions, including allegations of tax and gun crimes.
