The former United States president, now 78, proudly announced the arrival of his new grandson on social media.\n\n\n\n
On Tuesday, August 6, Bush shared a heartwarming photo on Instagram to congratulate his daughter, Barbara Pierce Bush, and her husband, Craig Coyne, on the birth of their second child.\n\n\n\n The couple, who are already parents to a 2-year-old daughter named Cora Georgia, welcomed their son, Edward Finn, into the world just a few days earlier.\n\n\n\n In the touching photo, Barbara and Craig can be seen cradling their newborn son in a hospital bed, their faces glowing with joy as they gaze lovingly at their baby boy. \u201cWelcome to the world, Edward Finn Coyne. @laurawbush and I are proud grandparents of our newest blessing, born on August 4 and lovingly named in honor of his great-grandfathers,\u201d Bush wrote in his caption. \u201cCongratulations to Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia.\u201d\n\n\n\n The happy news was first shared by Barbara\u2019s twin sister, Jenna Bush Hager, on Monday, August 5. Jenna, who is a co-anchor on the Today show, took to Instagram to express her excitement about becoming an aunt again.\n\n\n\n Although Jenna did not provide further details about her nephew\u2019s birth, the photos offer a glimpse of the family\u2019s joy. Notably, Edward was seen wearing a hat from NYU Langone Health, as pointed out by Today.com, indicating that Barbara may have given birth at the renowned New York City hospital.\n\n\n\n This isn\u2019t the first time George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, have shared their excitement about becoming grandparents. When Barbara and Craig\u2019s daughter, Cora, was born, the former president and first lady released a joint statement to announce the happy news.\n\n\n\n \u201cWith full hearts, @laurawbush and I are delighted to announce the birth of our new granddaughter. Barbara gave birth to Cora Georgia Coyne on September 27, 2021, in Maine \u2013 not far from our family home where Barbara and Craig were married,\u201d they shared in October 2021. \u201cCora is healthy and adorable, and we are proud and grateful.\u201d\n\n\n\n What a lovely addition to the Bush family!\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
