George W. Bush is filled with joy as his family continues to grow! The 78-year-old former US president recently took to social media to share the wonderful news of welcoming a new member into their family.
Proudly announcing the birth of his grandson, Bush warmly congratulated his daughter Barbara Pierce Bush and her husband Craig Coyne on social media following the delightful arrival of their second child.
Barbara and Craig, who are already parents to a charming 2-year-old daughter named Cora Georgia, recently became parents again with the birth of their son, Edward Finn.
The couple shared a touching photograph from the hospital, capturing a heartfelt moment as they lovingly held their newborn son.
Their faces radiated pure happiness as they embraced their new journey as parents of two. In the caption accompanying the picture, Bush shared, “@laurawbush and I are thrilled to welcome our newest blessing, born on August 4 and affectionately named in honor of his great-grandfathers. Welcome to the world, Edward Finn Coyne. Our hearty congratulations to Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia.”
The joyous news was first revealed by Jenna Bush Hager, Barbara’s twin sister, just a day earlier on August 5. As co-anchor of the Today show, Jenna couldn’t hold back her excitement about becoming an aunt once again and shared her delight on Instagram.
Jenna, now 42, joyously wrote, “My sissy had a little mister and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn! ❤️💗👼,” sharing a collection of heartwarming photos capturing moments post Edward’s birth. One image shows Jenna caring for her newborn nephew, while another displays her observing with fondness as Barbara cradles Edward. In the third picture, Edward is seen peacefully sleeping in his mother’s comforting embrace.
Although Jenna didn’t share every detail about Edward’s birth, her photos painted a vivid picture of the family’s elation. It was noted by Today.com that Edward was seen wearing a cap from NYU Langone Health, indicating that Barbara might have given birth at the acclaimed New York City hospital.
This isn’t the first time George W. Bush and his wife Laura have expressed their excitement over becoming grandparents. They have joyfully shared such milestones in the past, celebrating the birth of their granddaughter Cora together, expressing their gratitude for the new life in their family.
The couple had previously shared their happiness publically. “With hearts full, we are delighted to announce the birth of our beautiful granddaughter,” they stated back in October 2021, announcing the birth of Cora Georgia Coyne a few weeks prior in September, not far from their family home in Maine, where Barbara and Craig tied the knot. “We are so grateful and pleased that Cora is happy and healthy,” they added.
The Bush family is undeniably overjoyed and cherishing the special bond shared with the newcomers in their family. Join the conversation and let us know your thoughts on this heartwarming momentous occasion by sharing your comments below!
