Jenna Bush Hager & Barbara Bush Open Up About Their White House Years & Raising 5 Kids Together

Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Bush open up about growing up in the White House, having both a father and grandfather as U.S. presidents, and how their parents, George W. Bush and Laura Bush, embraced a laid-back parenting style. Barbara recalls, "It was the opposite of helicopter parenting. They let us make mistakes, and we did." Jenna adds, "And also, we're happy adults because of it." The sisters share hilarious stories about meeting their husbands — Jenna made Henry Hager wait after reading ‘The Rules’, while Barbara set up a blind date with Craig Coyne — but didn’t tell him that Jenna, their publicist, and publisher would be there too!

The twins reflect on motherhood, raising their five children together, and the unbreakable bond they share. From navigating life as first daughters to supporting each other as moms, they offer a heartfelt and humorous look at sisterhood, parenting, and growing up in a political dynasty. Jenna and Barbara’s new children’s book, ‘I Loved You First’, is out now.
