Jenna Bush Hager Says She 'Sometimes' Likes When Women Flirt with Her Husband

Jenna Bush Hager doesn't necessarily mind when other women openly flirt with her husband Henry Chase Hager. In fact, she admits it helps keep the spark alive.

While talking to her Today show co-host Hoda Kotb on Monday, the former first daughter said, “This may be weird, but sometimes I like it when people flirt with Henry."

Asked why, Bush Hager, 42, said, "I don't know, I’m just like, ‘Baby girls still got it!' " adding: "Because I am very secure in our relationship.”

"So I'm like, 'Oh, there you are,' " she added.

Still, Bush Hager admitted that there's a fine line, and she wouldn't want Henry flirting back with anyone who gave him attention.

"If it's a very small amount [of flirting,] I find it attractive," she said. "He wouldn't do it a lot."

Bush Hager met her husband when her father, George W. Bush, was still in office — and she was still living at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

That arrangement meant that the couple's courtship wasn't without its funny moments — including when her then-boyfriend got caught by a Secret Service agent after a secret overnight stay in the White House.

Bush Hager has revisited the moment on both Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and Today with Jenna and Hoda, telling her co-host: "Henry said he woke up and he looked around and he was like, 'Aaaaaaaah' because he worked for my dad.

Bush Hager, however, wasn't concerned at the time. " 'Well have fun,' " she remembered telling her then-boyfriend. "I didn't care. Bye!"

"My parents were traveling and I was staying there," she added. "We'd gone out to the bars and, like all relationships do, it reached a certain level."

"Can you imagine waking up and just being, like, 'Where am I? What is this strange room?'" she added.

Bush Hager later told Cohen, however, that Henry "got caught" by Secret Service, adding: "That was the problem."

She's also previously reminisced about the time Henry went mountain biking with her dad, an avid biker.

"One time, this is terrible, but Henry and my dad went biking, when they first — like, this sort of bonding moment — they went mountain biking. And Henry had a Schwinn Twinsky, and dad had a real mountain bike," Jenna told Kotb in a 2022 episode of Today.

Asked if Henry managed to keep up, Jenna was quick to admit that he did not.

"[My dad] shredded him," she said. "Left him in the dust. And by the way, back then, he was president so all the Secret Service cars would go past him."

She continued: "So Henry's humiliated, trying to fix his chain that broke on his Schwinn Twin. He starts going down the hill and the Secret Service open the door on Henry and Henry flies in the air and lands. So my dad calls and goes, 'Hey, J, just want to tell ya, Henry did an okay job. He did get doored, but he's okay. He's got some scratches, he might have hurt his arm, but he's okay.' "
