LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Al Roker is about to be a grandfather, and he is thrilled about it. Roker has three children - Courtney, Nicholas, and Leila. While his love for them all is crystal clear, he is currently beaming with excitement and pride for his daughter Courtney. Roker has taken to Instagram to wish his daughter, and son-in-law, Wesley Laga a very happy anniversary, but his mention of his forthcoming granddaughter doesn’t go unnoticed.
Roker is loved by many and all, and one of the reasons is that he is a family man, through and through. From the little accomplishments to the big ones, Roker is the biggest cheerleader when it comes to his family, and of course, his presence on NBC’s ‘Today’ has also added to his popularity. With Roker’s heartwarming post, the internet will surely have a field day swooning over his kindness.
‘So excited’
Roker is edging closer to turning 70 in just under two years, but that hasn’t stopped him from being tech-savvy, especially when it comes to social media. Roker has been on the receiving end of a lot of love, appreciation, and major accomplishments all his life, but the biggest one is yet to come. Courtney Roker and Wesley Laga are expecting a baby soon, and as they celebrate their 2-year anniversary, Roker can’t stop himself from mentioning the baby, along with the wishes. His post is captioned, “2 years ago today, these two tied the knot. Today we celebrated their about to be here baby girl. So excited.” Apart from wishing his daughter and son-in-law, Roker was also present at Courtney’s baby shower, with nothing but smiles.
‘Surrounded by so much love’
Courtney was surrounded by friends, family and loved ones at her baby shower, including, of course, proud father Roker. If you're not convinced about how excited Roker is about his grandchild, you should check out Courtney's Instagram. Most of her content revolves around food, but there are occasional posts about her family and husband.
When she first announced her pregnancy, “A new adventure is about to begin ❤️🍼” Roker rushed to the comment section where he first commented, “Here we go!!! So very very happy!!!!!! You guys” and his next comment on the same post was “Going for pop-pop.” To say that Roker is excited to be a grandfather, would truly be an understatement.
