Couric proudly announced this happy news on Instagram, sharing a series of heartwarming photos of the newborn alongside his birth details. The baby, affectionately called Jay, arrived on his due date, weighing just shy of seven pounds.

Another captured Couric herself, holding little Jay and pulling an exaggerated surprised face as the newborn appeared to yawn, capturing the joy and wonder of grandmotherhood.
In another touching moment, Couric shared a photo of her daughter Carrie meeting her new nephew, emphasizing the significance of family bonds. Additionally, there was a snapshot of Couric’s husband, John Molner, proudly holding a cigar alongside Dobrosky, symbolizing the celebration of this joyous occasion.
This announcement comes after Couric’s previous revelation of Ellie’s pregnancy in December. Ellie and her sister Carrie creatively broke the news to Couric during a Taylor Swift concert by presenting her with a friendship bracelet spelling out “Granny to be.” Couric’s emotional and joy-filled reaction was captured in a heartwarming video, showcasing the anticipation and excitement leading up to Jay’s arrival.
