George W. Bush is beaming with joy as he welcomes his new grandson, Edward Finn Coyne, to the family! The former president, now 78, took to Instagram to share a heartwarming photo of his daughter Barbara Pierce Bush and her husband Craig Coyne cradling their newborn son in a hospital bed ¹.
Edward Finn was born on August 4, and his name is a beautiful tribute to his great-grandfathers. Bush’s caption read, “Welcome to the world, Edward Finn Coyne… @laurawbush and I are proud grandparents of our newest blessing.” He also congratulated Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia.
The news was first shared by Barbara’s twin sister, Jenna Bush Hager, on Instagram. Jenna, a co-anchor on the Today show, expressed her excitement about becoming an aunt again, captioning a series of adorable photos, “My sissy had a little mister and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn!” ¹.
The family’s joy is palpable in the photos, which show Jenna feeding Edward, Barbara holding him, and Edward resting peacefully in his mother’s arms. Notably, Edward wore a hat from NYU Langone Health, hinting that Barbara may have given birth at the renowned NYC hospital.
This isn’t the first time George W. Bush and Laura have celebrated becoming grandparents. When Cora was born in 2021, they released a joint statement saying, “With full hearts, @laurawbush and I are delighted to announce the birth of our new granddaughter… Cora is healthy and adorable, and we are proud and grateful.” ¹
It’s clear that the Bush family is over the moon about their new addition!
