Jenna Bush Hager has shared a lot about her family life during her time on Today. She has also opened up about her life before marriage. Recently, the Today star opened up about a surprising question she received from her son.
Jenna Bush Hager Revealed Her Son Had Questions About Love After Watching A Rom-Com
Jenna grew up in the public eye as the daughter of George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States. In 2009, she joined Today as a correspondent and contributor. She has since gained further recognition as the co-host of the series’ Fourth Hour.
In her personal life, Jenna married Henry Hager in 2008 at her parents’ Prairie Chapel Ranch near Crawford, Texas. The couple shares three children together: Mila, Poppy, and Hal.
During a recent episode of Today, Willie Geist filled in for Sheinelle Jones during the Fourth Hour, sitting alongside Jenna. At one point, while speaking with her guest co-host, Jenna recalled watching an unnamed rom-com with her 7-year-old son.
It was then that Jenna revealed Hal asked her a question about her life before she married his father. She shared, “He’s like, ‘Mom, do you like anybody the way that girl likes him?’” To that, she replied, “And I was like, ‘Yes, your father.’”
The Today Star Expressed A Message She Wanted To Impart To Viewers
However, Hal pushed further, asking about any men in Jenna’s life before his parents married. She joked, “I had to go through the old roster.” Jenna revealed she was open about her answer. However, she teased that she skipped over “all the entry levels,” mentioning the “higher-level” boyfriends.
That said, Jenna began to question why she was being so open, adding, “At some point I was like, what am I doing? Why am I doing this?” Hal then asked her why she liked her exes. She shared, “I don’t even remember, Hal! It was 25 years ago!” However, she shared that she continued the conversation, explaining the fun of dating to her son.
Ultimately, Jenna expressed a message she wanted to impart to viewers: “I wanted to get people dating again! What are y’all doing if you’re not dating? Love and be loved!”
