O'Donnell opened up about the birth of her first grandchild, Skylar, in 2019 during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers.

"It was something really beautiful," she said after the birth. "It's very trite, but it's what everyone says — when you're a grandparent, it's like [having] a baby times a million. And that's what it felt like."

Although Rosie and Chelsea, whom the outspoken television host adopted with former partner Kelli Carpenter-O'Donnell, have had their fair share of public issues in the past, their relationship appears to be growing stronger as time goes on.

"I think with my relationship with my daughter, Chelsea, it really has because we went through some really public troubled times," said Rosie while guest-hosting The Talk in 2018. "She's doing better now and we're both communicating with each other."

Added Rosie: "When somebody does something unforgivable to you and you can forgive them and they can forgive you, there's a kind of grace that descends upon the both of you, within that."
