By Movieguide® Contributor
TV personality and actress Kathie Lee Gifford celebrated her 70th birthday with many heartfelt birthday wishes from friends and family.
“The former TODAY co-host was honored by daughter Cassidy Gifford Wierda and daughter-in-law Erika Brown Gifford on her 70th birthday Wednesday with birthday tributes on each’s Instagram Story, celebrating her as a doting grandmother,” People reported.
“’Happy Birthday to the World’s Most Amazing Mother in Love in the world!!! You’re the greatest bubbe and most fun of humans!” Erika wrote. “’&& Baby Fwanks also couldn’t love you more.”
Cassidy said, “’Happiest birthday to the one and only @kathielgifford! Laughing through life with you is one of my greatest blessings. Beyond thankful for the woman, believer and mother you are … and the bubbe you are to little Finn!’”
They also remembered Gifford’s late husband, Frank Gifford, who had the same birthday, sharing birthday wishes in his honor.
Gifford’s former TODAY show co-host, Hoda Kotb, posted a photo of them and said, “Happy Birthday to the one who brings the FUN!!! I love u @kathielgifford.”
Gifford thanked everyone in an Instagram post: “Hi everybody! I can’t thank you enough for the lovely birthday blessings you have been sending my way. I am deeply grateful for a life that has been full of grace and joy. You have all been a part of it! May the Lord bless each and every one of you. Shalom!”
Gifford frequently expresses her love for her children and grandchildren on Instagram. In a photo of her and her grandson Frankie, she said, “Heaven…. I’m in heaven! Or as close as I’m going to get to it on this earth!”
Movieguide® recently announced that Frankie will get a sibling this winter:
The couple announced the news on Instagram with a sweet video montage of her pregnancy test, a visit to the doctor with son Frankie in tow, and photos of Frankie touching Erika’s stomach.
“Baby Gifford #2 coming this winter,” Erika captioned the video. “Thank you so much for all of the love and prayers. It has meant the world. Gifford, party of 4!!!”
This will be Cody’s mother, Kathie Lee Gifford’s, third grandchild.
