The veteran broadcaster and Caroline's bond has only strengthened, especially in the face of shared loss. Her father, John Paul Monahan, also known as Jay, tragically died at 42 due to cancer. He was a lawyer and NBC News legal analyst who played a significant role in the world of legal analysis.

Caroline's ever-stylish mom has been happily married to her second husband, a financier named John Molner, since 2014. He also co-founded his wife's self-titled media organization.

Apart from birthday tributes, Caroline appears on her mother's social media on other rare occasions, such as when they attended a New York City fashion show together. The TV presenter described the experience as magical and a "fun mother-daughter outing."
