Meghan shared that her mom had been worried about leaving Arizona as the state experienced huge spikes of COVID-9 cases. Cindy was worried about contracting the virus and bringing it to her daughter and the baby.

The TV host said that her mom had been FaceTiming with her new granddaughter all the time. However, they were finally able to meet in person after she was vaccinated.

Cindy had said that Meghan and her husband, Ben Domenech, had been handling parenthood well and were so happy with their baby. She shared with "The View" hosts:

"They're so happy. She's the first little girl in the family so I'm very excited about that. They're just doing really well; Meghan couldn't be happier"

Megan had announced her pregnancy in March on Instagram. In the post, she shared that she would be working remotely and appear virtually on "The View."

Ben and Megan welcomed their sweet baby in September. Megan had shared that motherhood is a euphoric experience, and all of the expectations she had of motherhood had gone above what she had imagined.

The birth of Liberty came after she had revealed she experienced a miscarriage in 2019. She wrote for The New York Times and shared that she had love for all the women who had experienced a pregnancy loss.

Meghan is the daughter of former Republican Presidential nominee John McCain, who died in 2018 after battling an aggressive form of cancer.
