NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America’ host George Stephanopoulos and wife Ali Wentworth’s older daughter, Elliott Anastasia Stephanopoulos, just turned 21. Wentworth took to Instagram to wish her daughter on this occasion with an emotional post.
In the post, Wentworth talked about the time Elliott was born, and how every time others would talk about Elliott growing up, it felt like an “insane thought” as Wentworth suffered from sleep deprivation and was in pain from “constant breastfeeding” during her postpartum period.
As Wentworth shared this emotional ode to her daughter, her fans and followers couldn’t help but sympathize with her and get “teary-eyed.”
