Jenna Bush Hager tearfully recalls advice grandfather George H.W. Bush gave her before he died

Jenna Bush Hager broke down in tears recalling the advice her late grandfather and former President George H.W. Bush shared with her before his death.

Speaking on “Today with Hoda & Jenna” Wednesday, Bush Hager and her co-host Hoda Kotb discussed fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg’s life and the upcoming Hulu documentary that explores it.

As the duo talked about getting the most out of life, Bush Hager shared the wisdom her late grandpa imparted before his death in 2018 at age 94.

“It reminded me of this evening I spent with my grandpa and he could barely speak and I was sitting between him and he leaned over to me and he’s like, ‘Don’t forget to enjoy the game,’” she shared.

“And it was at the end of his life and at sort of the beginning of mine, relatively. And to hear somebody that had done everything, be like, ‘Don’t forget to be in it,’ to enjoy it, to be part of it, I’ll never forget it,” she added, being overcome with emotion. “It’s kind of what I want to tell all of us.”

Ummm. Yeah. Not stuff like turn to God. Not embrace family and friends. But treat life like a game to be won or lost. Can there be a more cold and cynical way to live a life?

If you are gonna try and kill your boss don’t use the crazy son of your corrupt business partner as the gunman

True. Barbara Bush is liberal but she shuts up. The way it should be.
