George W. Bush is overjoyed with the arrival of a new family member! The 78-year-old former president recently shared his excitement on social media, celebrating the birth of his new grandson. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Bush congratulated his daughter Barbara Pierce Bush and her husband Craig Coyne on the birth of their second child.
Barbara and Craig, already parents to two-year-old daughter Cora Georgia, welcomed their baby boy, Edward Finn, just a few days ago. The couple shared a sweet photo of themselves holding their newborn son at the hospital, radiating happiness as they tenderly care for him.
The post’s caption read: “Our newest blessing, born on August 4 and named after his great-grandfathers, makes @laurawbush and I proud grandparents. Welcome to the world, Edward Finn Coyne. Congratulations to Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia!”
On August 5, Jenna Bush Hager, Barbara’s twin sister and *Today* co-anchor, was the first to share the joyful news. Jenna posted several Instagram pictures, expressing her love for her new nephew.
“My sissy had a little mister, and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn!” Jenna, 42, wrote, alongside images of her spending time with the newborn, praising Barbara’s sweet moments with him, and a heartwarming shot of the baby peacefully sleeping in his mother’s arms.
While the exact details of Edward’s birth weren’t disclosed, the pictures clearly reflected the family’s joy. Today.com noted that Edward was seen wearing an NYU Langone Health cap, hinting that Barbara might have delivered him at the renowned New York City hospital.
George and Laura Bush have previously shared their excitement about becoming grandparents. In October 2021, they joyfully announced the birth of their first grandchild, granddaughter Cora, with a joint statement.
“With hearts full, @laurawbush and I are thrilled to announce the arrival of our beautiful granddaughter,” George wrote at the time. Barbara gave birth to Cora Georgia Coyne on September 27, 2021, in Maine, near the family’s home, where Barbara and Craig had also tied the knot. “We are overjoyed and grateful that Cora is healthy and adorable.”
Now, the Bush family is celebrating the newest addition, Edward Finn Coyne, adding another chapter to their family’s rich history. George and Laura continue to embrace their new roles as proud grandparents, showering their growing family with love and support.
