Jenna Bush Hager’s Daughter Mila Hilariously Interrupts ‘Today Show’ Segment

Jenna Bush Hager demonstrated the struggle of working from home as a parent this past week when her 7-year-old daughter Mila hilariously interrupted a live Today Show segment, according to Daily Mail.

Hager and Hoda Kotb have been filming a segment for the fourth hour of the Today Show from home for weeks now, in an attempt to social distance. Things typically go pretty smoothly, but this time Mila wanted some attention. She climbed on her mother’s back and began playing with her hair during the segment. Hager wasn’t angry and had already warned Kotb that there could be an interruption or two due to a change from her usual filming location.

“I moved to a different room, which is very risky, because right around the corner, there is a baby having oatmeal and bananas. This is the problem. It’s a Catch-22. Do you want silence or do you want good internet? You can’t have ’em both,” the 38-year-old joked, keeping it real.

Kotb let out a laugh as Mila sneakily peeked around the corner and began hanging from her mother’s shoulders, seeming to not realize she was on camera.

“I told you it was risky,” Hager said to Kotb who smiled and waved at the 7-year-old.

Mila was dressed in her school uniform, even though she is currently being taught from home. Hager explained that this is out of convenience.

“Do you know why? We wear it, and then we wear it five days a week. We take it off, and we’re not doing as much laundry,” Hager explained.

At one point Kotb pointed out that Mila was attempting to braid her mother’s hair. Hager quipped that someone should do it, as the quarantine has kept her from being able to get her hair done, leaving some grey peeking out of her roots.

“When I chose this place, I knew there could be a sneaker. This is not a closed-off location.” Hager explained before switching the topic to baking thereby keeping the conversation age-appropriate with Mila in the room.

As The Inquisitr previously reported, Hager has acknowledged in the past that working from home while trying to teach her children can be both wonderful and challenging at the same time. Even though Hager was once a teacher by trade, she admitted that she found it easier to teach other people’s children than her own.
