NextImg:Jenna Bush Hager jokes her, Hoda Kotb’s young children ‘already need therapy’

Their lips are sealed.

Jenna Bush Hager and her co-host, Hoda Kotb, joked that ranking their children would lead to more “therapy” than the kids already need on Tuesday’s episode of “Today with Hoda & Jenna.”

During the show, Bush Hager, 42, and Kotb, 59, watched a clip from a game that Seth Meyers plays on his show called “Truth or Drink” in which the comedian, 49, was asked to rank his children.

While he refused to answer the question, Meyers did admit that he had a favorite.

“Don’t you like how funny our producers are?” Bush Hager — who shares kids Hal, 4, Poppy, 8, and Mila, 10, with husband Henry Hager — asked her co-host after seeing the clip.

“They thought we were going to rank our children,” Kotb — mom to daughters Haley, 6, and Hope, 4, whom she adopted in 2017 and 2019, respectively — responded.

Bush Hager then joked that their kids “already need their therapy” and they would not be adding to it by ranking their kids from favorite to least favorite.

Kotb agreed, adding that she also doesn’t have a favorite child.

“I feel like different days, I have a different one. Whoever’s nicest to me. Whoever’s being nicer to me on that day, they become that,” the daughter of former president George W. Bush added.

Last month, Bush Hager revealed that her kids called her by her first name.

“My children call me Jenna,” the mom of three said.

“That’s something for you to unpack with them,” joked her twin sister, Barbara Pierce Bush, who was filling in for Kotb.

Meanwhile, Kotb said over the summer that she has anxiety thinking about getting older while raising her two girls.

“I look at my mom, who’s 86, and I think to myself, ‘OK, what’s the difference here between me and her? Thirty [years]. OK, that’s kind of good, so let’s see, 30 years,’” the mom of two told Bethenny Frankel on her “Just B” podcast.

“So, I add 30 to Haley and I add 30 to Hope. And I think to myself, won’t that be spectacular? I can do that.”
