Image generated by AI

Drama unfolded at the Delaware home of Jill Biden's first husband, Bill Stevenson, when he dialed 911 Sunday night over a domestic dispute—only for officers to find his wife, Linda, unresponsive and later pronounced dead. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the 64-year-old suffered cardiac arrest, with an investigation underway but no charges filed yet. Bill is cooperating fully as detectives await autopsy results.

Hold onto your pearls, darlings, because this story out of Delaware is serving all the messy vibes. Bill Stevenson, the man who was once married to our forever First Lady Jill Biden back in the groovy '70s, picked up the phone and called 911 around 11:15 p.m. Sunday night from his Oak Hill home, reporting a domestic dispute, per law enforcement speaking to TMZ. Officers rolled up to find Bill waiting outside, but inside? Heartbreaking scene: his wife, 64-year-old Linda Stevenson, unresponsive in the living room. 😔

Cops jumped into action with life-saving measures, but sadly, Linda was pronounced dead right there on the spot. Dispatch audio captured the urgency, mentioning "cardiac arrest." Now, the New Castle County Police Department's Criminal Investigations Unit is on the case, digging into the death—but hold up, no criminal charges against Bill so far. He's already chatted with detectives and is playing nice, cooperating every step of the way. Linda's body heads to the Delaware Division of Forensic Science for that all-important autopsy to nail down cause and manner of death.

Flashback for context: Jill and Bill tied the knot in February 1970—he was 23, she was a University of Delaware student. Bill even launched the iconic Stone Balloon bar near campus in 1972. But things got nasty; they separated in 1974, with a divorce so bitter Jill tried (and failed) to snag half the bar. Enter Joe Biden, who swooped in and married Jill in June 1977. Talk about plot twists! Will the autopsy spill more tea, or is this just a tragic end to a quiet night gone wrong? 👀
