Barbara and Craig’s journey into parenthood began with the arrival of their first child, Cora Georgia Coyne, in September 2021, as per TODAY.

Cora was born at the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital in Portland, Maine, that carries a special legacy. This hospital is named after her great-grandmother, Barbara Bush, the wife of former president George HW Bush, the 41st president of the United States.

At the time of her birth in 2021, Barbara and Jenna's father, former president George W Bush, proudly announced Cora's birth on Instagram, sharing the joy with the world.

On the show 'Today with Hoda & Jenna', Jenna opened up about the emotional moment back then when she discovered her twin was in labor with Cora.

She reportedly received the news via text and was overwhelmed with tears of joy.

“I woke up to a text message on Monday morning,” she said. “I burst into tears, I was frantic, I woke up (husband) Henry (Hager). He was like, ‘What?’ I’m like, ‘She’s in labor!’”

Cora and Edward are set for endless fun with their built-in playmates- their cousins Mila (11), Poppy (9), and Hal (5), the children of Jenna and her husband, Henry Hager.
