Jenna Bush Hager Surprises Colleagues With an Honest Revelation
During a recent episode of the Today show, Jenna Bush Hager left her co-hosts in awe when she casually mentioned that her 4-year-old son, Hal, is still sleeping in a crib. This revelation came on Thursday, October 12, as Jenna and Hoda Kotb were chatting about keeping their homes organized while raising kids. The conversation quickly turned into a candid moment that resonated with parents everywhere.
Organized Kids? Not Exactly
At 41 years old, Jenna Bush Hager isn’t shy about sharing the ups and downs of parenting. When asked if her three children—Mila, Poppy, and Hal—are naturally tidy, Jenna gave an honest answer. "Poppy is very organized, very much so," she explained. "Mila, not so much." Then came the unexpected part: "Hal is still in his crib, so." The studio erupted in laughter and curiosity, setting the stage for a deeper dive into Jenna's parenting journey.
Why Hal Stays in His Crib
Feeling the surprise from her co-hosts and the crew, Jenna took a moment to explain her reasoning. "At some point, do I need to move him out?" she asked Hoda, turning to the camera for reassurance. "Ya’ll, it’s normal, right?" she questioned, seeking the opinions of viewers at home. But the crew behind the scenes wasn’t having it. "No!" they yelled in unison, leaving Jenna laughing and slightly flustered. "I wasn’t even asking you!" she joked, emphasizing that she truly wanted to hear from parents out there who might relate.

Hal’s Perspective on Moving to a Bed
Jenna shared that she’s had multiple conversations with Hal about transitioning from his crib to a big-boy bed. Each time, Hal has given her the same thoughtful response. "I said, 'Do you want to, maybe let’s try to talk about moving you next week to your bed,' and he said, 'Not this Christmas, but next Christmas,'" Jenna revealed, showcasing her son's unique sense of timing. It’s clear that Hal is comfortable in his crib, where he feels safe and secure.
To Each Their Own
Jenna ended the segment with a lighthearted laugh, saying, "He wants to be the only kindergartner in his crib. Anyway, to each their own." Her willingness to share personal parenting moments makes her relatable to millions of viewers who understand the complexities of raising children.
Halloween Plans Include a Unique Costume
Last month, Jenna shared another quirky story about Hal's plans for Halloween. "Hal wants to be a New York City rat," she said with a chuckle on September 18. "Not just a rat, but a New York City rat, so a special kind of breed." Clearly, Hal has a creative streak that matches his mom’s candid charm.
A Candid Confession About Underwear
Jenna has always been open about her personal choices, even when they might raise eyebrows. Last November, she admitted during a Today episode that she "never wears underwear." Her reasoning? "I think it makes a more pretty silhouette!" she declared. "I also think you don’t have to pack as much. There’s a lot of pros to it!" Whether it’s parenting decisions or fashion choices, Jenna Bush Hager isn’t afraid to be herself.
