Why Jenna Bush Hager's Kids Will 'Never' Be on 'Today' Again
Jenna Bush Hager has learned her lesson when it comes to allowing her kids airtime on the Today Show.
The mother of three has fallen victim to their "truth bombs" before, so she's taking every measure necessary to stop it from happening ever again. Her two daughters, Margaret "Mila" Laura, 10, and Poppy Louise, 7, were on site earlier today to see Ed Sheeran perform in an early morning, outdoor concert, but they were nowhere to be found back in the soundstage.
Bush Hager later revealed that the two had the "best time" watching him, but that she wouldn't be inviting them inside to talk about it.
"They’re not here because they’ll never be invited on this show again," she said, explaining, "...they just like to get secrets out of you. They’re allowed to come and watch the concert but they’re nowhere close to microphones."
Her oldest daughter, Mila, got her good last December when she shamelessly spilled the tea about her mother during an appearance on the morning news show.
Co-anchor Hoda Kotb said to the girl, "You know when I love her the most, Mila? When she's laughing so hard she can't catch her breath."
In response, the then-9-year-old blurted out, "Yeah, one time she was laughing in our living room and she peed her pants!"
"I love her so much, but it's time for her to go," Bush Hager replied, worrying about what else might come out. Unfortunately for her, Kotb had other plans, trying to coax additional embarrassments out of the girl.
"Is that the last one?" she asked, leading Mila to further reveal, "She never wears underwear! She is not wearing it right now! I saw her change!"
Bush Hager is also mother to son Hal, 3, but we're betting she doesn't have too many worries about the secrets he may spill just yet.
