“It was really special,” Laura shared on Today in October 2021, noting that Cora’s middle name is a nod to George, 78. “Cora Georgia. So, she’ll have to be his favorite.”
Grandma Laura also shared that she was reading Cora the book On the Night You Were Born. “She was, of course, very fascinated with it,” Laura said with a smile. “I don’t know if she opened her eyes—she’s just a little, tiny, premature baby, but she’s doing wonderfully.”
