Jenna Bush Hager, the co-host of ‘Today with Jenna & Friends’, recently opened up about a touching experience she had while attending a concert with her daughter. On a Wednesday episode of her show, Jenna shared why she became emotional when taking her older daughter, Mila, who is 12 years old, to see Gracie Abrams perform.
The mother of three shared that as she watched her daughter’s excitement during the concert, she couldn’t help but shed tears. Jenna reflected on the moment, expressing that it was a special experience witnessing the joy in her daughter’s eyes. She also acknowledged that her daughter’s growing up and heading into middle school added an emotional layer to the event.

As Jenna’s husband, Henry Hager, went to fetch some sodas for the family, she contemplated the possibility that her daughter might not want to attend concerts with her mother in the future. Jenna shared her thoughts, saying, “And I was just thinking like, this could be the last time my seventh grader is cool with sitting next to her mom at a concert.”
Reflecting on the fast passage of time and the inevitable changes that come with her daughter’s teenage years, Jenna felt a mix of emotions. Despite her husband teasing her about getting emotional, Jenna cherished the moment shared with her daughter at the concert, knowing that such moments may become rare as her daughter grows older.

Jenna and her husband are parents to daughters Mila and Poppy, who is nine years old, as well as their five-year-old son, Hal. Earlier this year, Jenna celebrated Mila’s 12th birthday with a heartfelt Instagram post, expressing love and pride for her daughter’s unique qualities and personality.
The post featured a series of photos capturing special moments shared between mother and daughter, showcasing their bond and Mila’s vibrant spirit. Jenna’s message was filled with love and admiration for her daughter, highlighting her sense of humour and love for cats.
As Jenna navigates the journey of parenthood and watches her children grow, she continues to cherish moments of connection and celebration with her family. The emotional experience at the concert served as a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of time and the precious moments shared between a mother and her children.
In a world filled with busy schedules and distractions, Jenna’s story resonates with many parents who understand the bittersweet emotions that come with watching their children grow up. The simple act of attending a concert together becomes a cherished memory, embodying the essence of love and family bond that transcends time.
Jenna’s candid sharing of her emotional moment serves as a reminder to treasure every moment spent with loved ones, as time moves swiftly and memories become the legacy we leave behind. In the midst of life’s hustle and bustle, it is the small, heartfelt connections that truly matter and leave a lasting impact on our hearts.
