There’s something special about Jenna Bush Hager. Whether she’s sharing heartwarming moments with her husband, Henry Hager, or raising their three beautiful kids—Mila, Poppy, and Hal—she always seems to bring a touch of warmth and authenticity to everything she does. And when it comes to her real estate portfolio, well, let’s just say it tells a fascinating story about family, roots, and finding home.
A Look Into Jenna Bush Hager’s Real Estate Portfolio
Growing up in Texas, Jenna Bush Hager was no stranger to making memories. As the daughter of former President George W. Bush and former First Lady Laura Bush, her life has been a blend of public service and personal growth. When her dad took office in 2001, Jenna was already a college student at the University of Texas at Austin. "Well, we didn’t live in the White House," Jenna shared during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen back in September 2020. "So people will always be like — 'What was it like there?' [But] I was in college, so I lived in Austin." That sense of grounding, even amidst the spotlight, has stayed with her throughout her life.
Fast forward to today, and Jenna has carved out her own space as a beloved host on NBC's Today. With her career taking her to the Big Apple, Jenna became a proud New Yorker. Before settling into her current lifestyle, she called a luxurious Tribeca condo home. This wasn’t just any apartment—it was a four-bedroom sanctuary that welcomed her family with private elevator access, a library-like living room filled with books, and breathtaking views of Manhattan’s skyline.

But life is full of transitions, and in May 2022, Jenna decided to put this beloved condo on the market for $5.375 million, according to Sotheby’s International Realty. It wasn’t an easy decision, as Jenna revealed during a poignant moment on Today in June 2024. "We moved two years ago, and it was really hard for me," she admitted, her voice trembling with emotion. "It was very hard; I didn’t expect it to be so hard, but there was one night we sat on our couch in the empty apartment—all of us, the family." She went on to explain how deeply tied she was to that place. "My kids are so used to me showing emotions—I wonder what it’s going to do to them—but I was just weeping because I thought the same thing: We brought our babies home to this place. Henry and I weathered beautiful things and hard things together."
Of course, Jenna and Henry aren’t strangers to owning multiple properties. One of their favorite escapes is a charming home on Long Island, a place they fell in love with after years of renting summer homes in the area. "There was something about it that reminded me of Texas, of being outside," Jenna told Veranda in October 2019. "Even this close to the city, there was a remoteness to it." She also fondly recalled the abundance of birdhouses around the property, which resonated deeply with her family's love for nature. "I come from a long line of birders," she explained. "My parents bird for fun, and my grandmother Jenna was a naturalist. She would teach my sister, Barbara, and me about birds, rocks, every constellation in the sky."
Where Does Jenna Bush Hager Call Home Now?
These days, Jenna and her family have settled into a breathtaking Connecticut home, located just outside the city. While she doesn’t often share glimpses of this private retreat, Jenna did give fans a peek into her "new stomping ground" through a Christmas card photo posted on Instagram in December 2022.
This picturesque property boasts six spacious bedrooms, a grand living room complete with a cozy fireplace and elegant French doors, six luxurious bathrooms, and an inviting in-ground pool. Originally built in the 1920s, the home now features modern design elements seamlessly integrated into its timeless architecture. It’s clear that Jenna and her family have found a place where they can create lasting memories, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the comfort of home.
