Congratulations are in order for George W. Bush, the former president of the United States, for becoming a grandfather for the fifth time.
Bush, 78, announced the arrival of the newest blessing to the family with a photo of his daughter, Barbara Pierce Bush, and her husband, Craig Coyne, cradling their newborn son Edward Finn Coyne.
“Welcome 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,” Bush wrote in his caption. “Congratulations to Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia.”
Barbara’s twin sister, Jenna Bush Hager, co-anchor on the Today show, expressed her excitement over her role of an aunt for the second time. Taking to Instagram, she wrote, “My sissy had a little mister and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn! ❤️💗👼,” and included a series of adorable photos.
Barbara and Craig’s first child, Cora, was born in 2021.
Jenna is a mother of three herself, and little Edward Finn is the fifth grandchild of the former POTUS and wife Laura Bush.
When baby Cora was born, George W. Bush and his wife, Laura also shared the happy news through the social media. At the time, they wrote, “With 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 – not far from our family home where Barbara and Craig were married. Cora is healthy and adorable, and we are proud and grateful.”
The family didn’t provide further details regarding the birth of baby Edward Finn, but judging from the photos shared by Jenna and the NYU Langone Health inscription on the baby’s hat, it is likely that Barbara had given birth at the renowned New York City hospital.
