Katie Couric’s Daughter Ellie Becomes a Mom, Making Katie a Grandma for the First Time
Cameron Diaz & Benji Madden Welcome Baby No. 2!
Katie Couric is adding another role to her resumé: grandma.
After all, her eldest daughter, Ellie Monahan, welcomed her first baby with husband Mark Dobrosky, a son named John Albert, the legendary journalist shared on Instagram on March 24.
“John Albert Dobrosky was born on his due date, Saturday, March 23rd at 8:23 am, just shy of seven pounds,” Katie wrote. “He will be called Jay in honor of his maternal grandfather. Albert is after Mark’s paternal grandfather.”
“Mom and Dad (Ellie and Mark) are over the moon (it was a full moon),” she continued. “I am thrilled to have my first grandchild, Carrie can’t wait to be a cool Aunt and Molner is enjoying handing out cigars. We feel so blessed.”
The 67-year-old included pics of the family holding the little one, including new parents Ellie and Mark, as well as a photo of herself and younger daughter Caroline Monahan.
