It’s been a week of highs and lows for Jesse Watters and his wife, Emma. While the family is mourning the loss of a loved one, they’ve also found joy in celebrating a milestone that brought smiles to many.
On Tuesday, Emma, 32, shared a heartwarming Instagram post marking a big day for their daughter Georgina — her very first day of school.
Little Georgina, known as Gigi, looked picture-perfect in a pale pink pinafore dress, frilled white blouse, knee-high socks, and shiny pink shoes. With her blonde hair neatly tied half-up and a tiny bow on top, she carried a matching pink backpack, ready for her big adventure.
“Off she goes! Georgina’s first day of school!” Emma wrote in the caption, adding a sparkling pink heart emoji.
The post quickly lit up with comments from fans and friends. Fox News’ Dana Perino couldn’t hold back, writing: “Stop!” while others chimed in with messages like “OMG TOO CUTE!!!” and “So pretty in pink!”
But the sweet moment came during a difficult time for the Watters family. Just days earlier, Emma shared that her beloved grandmother had passed away shortly after celebrating her 90th birthday.
In a heartfelt tribute, Emma called her grandmother “our beloved and beautiful Nan,” writing: “Thank you for showing us how to love and live. You may be gone, but your lessons and light will remain forever. Love you so much.”
Her post featured cherished photos — from a radiant selfie of her grandmother to touching family snapshots with her mother, Janice, and little Gigi. Followers responded with an outpouring of condolences, offering love and support during the family’s loss.
For Jesse, 46, host of Fox News Primetime and co-host of The Five, family life is the foundation of everything. The couple, who share Gigi and their son Jesse Jr., often open a window into their home life through Emma’s social media. Jesse is also dad to two daughters, Sophie and Ellie, from his first marriage.
This week’s posts captured a poignant mix of emotions: the sorrow of saying goodbye to a grandmother and the joy of watching a child take her first step into school life. Through it all, one theme remains clear — for Jesse and Emma Watters, family is everything.
