"We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness," he told the outlet in a statement. "They have mine and Jill's full and complete support and we are happy for them."

As ET previously reported, Beau, the son of the former vice president, died at the age of 46 in May 2015 after battling brain cancer. He fathered two children with Hallie, a 12-year-old daughter, Natalie, and a 10 -year-old son, also named Hunter.

Kathleen and the elder Hunter, who share three children together -- Naomi, Maisy and Finnegan -- separated five months after Beau's death in October 2015, according to Page Six.
