Former President Joe Biden, along with numerous global luminaries, attended Pope Francis’ funeral at the Vatican on Saturday. However, his departure from the leadership of the free world has brought about significant changes.
Biden was accompanied by his wife, former first lady Jill Biden. However, they were not seated near President Donald Trump and other world leaders. Instead, they were positioned toward the back of the foreign dignitaries section, reflecting their no longer being heads of state.

Biden was also seen being escorted to his seat by his wife and a priest, gripping onto both and moving cautiously.
Once in his seating area, Biden took selfies with Uganda Deputy Speaker of Parliament Thomas Tayebwa before the pope’s funeral began.
