'GMA3' host Eva Pilgrim surprises fans with new addition to family, thanks co-star for the sweet gift
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America’ afternoon anchor, Eva Pilgrim recently introduced the newest addition to her family on Instagram.
The 41-year-old shared a snap of her new dog on her Instagram story. She posted a photo of her daughter Ella with the pup, holding him close.
Pilgrim made the move from the ‘GMA’ weekend desk to the show’s afternoon spin-off, ‘GMA3’ after taking over from ousted stars Amy Robach and TJ Holmes.
Pilgrim is married to Ed Hartigan who works as a digital marketing and media director and has a two-year daughter named Ella with him.
Eva Pilgrim welcomes a new dog to her idyllic home life
The ‘GMA3’ host leads a peaceful life with her family and her dog away from the gaze of the paparazzi.
However, her family just got bigger as co-star Lara Spencer handed her the gift.
After sharing the photo of the new pup in her family, Pilgrim captioned the snap, “Meet…Albert aka ‘Bertie’"
She added, “BIG thanks to @lara.spencer and @animalleague for this new addition to our family."
Pilgrim already had a French bulldog named Walter and had also written a children's book about the dog.
The book 'In Walter Does His Best: A Frenchie Adventure in Kindness and Muddy Paws', is about a little pup that shows how kindness can make a big difference in others' lives.
From a closer glimpse, it appears that Pilgrim’s new dog, Albert might also be a Frenchie. However, the ‘GMA’ star did not clarify what breed the dog was in her photo.
Eva Pilgrim suffers wardrobe malfunction on ‘GMA’
Only recently, the ‘GMA3’ host was a victim of a wardrobe malfunction and had to change her outfit.
During the November 1 broadcast of ‘GMA3: What You Need to Know’, Pilgrim revealed during the 'Deals and Steals' shopping segment that she’d had a mishap earlier that day. But her colleague, lifestyle contributor Tory Johnson, came to her rescue.
The first item that contributor Tory Johnson showcased was a tank top that’s perfect for “every body type.”
DeMarco Morgan told his co-host, Pilgrim, “That’s not bad. You could wear this under that suit, too.”
That’s when Pilgrim admitted, “Um, I’m gonna try to snag one of these later because I spilled coffee all over myself!”
Johnson then promised that she was going to “help” Eva and “hook [her] up.”
Her colleague did help Pilgrim out which was evident when later that day, she shared a photo of herself wearing a blue tank top, like the one shown on the show earlier.
Eva captioned the Instagram photo, 'Just me wearing my deals and steals skinny tank', and wrote, “I spilled coffee on my top this AM.”
She added, “So grateful @toryjohnson had a spare today!!!”
