Instead, she took the helm and decided to bring the family to Rome for the holiday, seeking refuge at the United States ambassador's residence, a source familiar with where she stayed at the time told CNN. For Jill Biden, Italy was a country where they could "escape," as she described it, and the familiarity of the religious symbolism also served as a comfort to the devoutly Catholic Biden family.
