Jenna Bush

Political Relative

Jenna Bush is the second child of George W. Bush and Laura Bush. (Her fraternal twin, Barbara, was born a few minutes before her. Jenna is blonde, Barbara brunette.) As the grandchild of President George Bush the elder, and then the daughter of President Bush the younger, Jenna was much in the public eye during her youth. She enrolled in the University of Texas in 2000, the same year her father was elected to the White House, and made headlines right away when she was cited for underage drinking in an Austin bar in April of 2001. She and her sister were cited again by police in May 2001 after attempting to buy drinks at an Austin restaurant. She seemed unfazed by the attention, and graduated from the University of Texas with an English degree in 2004. Bush became an elementary school teacher near Washington D.C., then traveled as an intern with the international children's organization Unicef. Her book Ana's Story, based on those travels, was published in 2007. In August of 2007 she became engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Henry Hager; they were married on 10 May 2008 in Crawford, Texas.

Extra credit: Hager is a former White House aide who attended Wake Forest University and is expected to receive an MBA from the University of Virginia in 2008. His father is John Hager, the former lieutenant governor of Virginia... According to the Reuters news service, "A White House spokeswoman declined to comment on whether Bush would take Hager's name or where the newlyweds would take their honeymoon"... Jenna is named for her maternal grandmother, Jenna Welch.
