Dateline Host Andrea Canning Shares Absolutely Gorgeous Birthday Photo of Her Daughter, 13 originally appeared on Parade.
Andrea Canning gave a rare glimpse of her daughter Christina “Kiki” Margaret to celebrate her 13th birthday.
The Dateline correspondent and mom-of-six, 52, shared a photo of Kiki on her Instagram on August 3 to celebrate the major milestone that she captioned “My blue eyed baby!”
Fans were quick to wish Kiki a happy birthday in the comments of the posts and others commented on just how much “she looks like her mama!” One person in the comments even called her a “mini Andrea” because of the similarities between mother and daughter.
Canning is a mom of daughters Anna Katherine, 16, Charlotte Brewster, 15, Elle Corbin, 10, Georgia Rapalje, 11, and son George Anthony, 6 with her husband USMC Lieutenant Colonel Tony Bancroft.
In an interview with Yahoo! Life back in 2021, Canning opened up about her approach to parenting her six children, especially as a working mom.
“I like for [my kids] to have their freedom to explore and figure out who they’re going to be,” she explained. “I’m not one of those strict parents.”
Canning also shared that while she likes that her kids “have seen two working parents,” growing up, she opened up about the “mom guilt” she faced, especially “with having a job where you travel.”
“They see me as a role model and it’s opened up their eyes to the media world and different stories,” she continued. “I try to be present when I’m here and be as hands-on as I can, but nothing’s ever perfect when you have a job and you have to travel.”
