The Truth About Jenna Bush Hager's Marriage

It can be inspiring to see couples who have been together a long time, through good times and bad, who still find beauty in their partnerships throughout the years. That's something that both Jenna Bush Hager and Henry Hager have observed in the couples around them, and something they celebrated on their big day. "At our wedding we did something," she shared in an episode of Today, "where we had three couples that we wanted to emulate, three couples that we just adore ... read, their pick, at our wedding, whatever they wanted to." That way, they each brought their own unique love wisdom into the pair's union.

The three couples consisted of Bush Hager's cousin and her husband, Hager's parents, and, of course, Bush Hager's grandparents, who, at the time, had been together for over 70 years. "We always ask my grandparents, whenever we get a chance, to talk about their love and how they've kept it going," she continued. "What they say ... and I see this, it's true, it's not just words: go 75 percent of the way. You can't both go 50." That's some pretty sagely advice!
