Al Roker, the Today weatherman, couldn’t contain his joy as he discussed becoming a first-time grandfather to his granddaughter, Sky Clara Laga. He described the experience as magical and expressed his love for his new role.
Sky Clara was born on July 3 to Al’s daughter Courtney Roker and her husband Wesley Laga. Al shared that the family was doing well, although Courtney had a cesarean section and was facing some challenges, while Wesley was adjusting to being a father.
Al couldn’t help but reflect on the passage of time, as he held his granddaughter, knowing that he had held her mother almost 35 years ago. He described Sky as perfect, weighing 5 lbs. 15 oz. and measuring 19 inches long. He also revealed that she is a great sleeper, following a schedule that matches his own.
The joy extended beyond Al himself, as his 20-year-old son, Nick, was also thrilled about the newest addition to the family. Al shared that Nick described holding Sky as an enthralling experience.
Al Roker is embracing his role as a first-time grandfather with immense happiness and excitement.
