She first became a grandmother in September 2021 when Kirby welcomed Luca. "I wanted to be a grandmother for a long time, and it's really something when you see your own child become a parent," she revealed on air at the time.

"I am so nuts about him. And then I was holding him, Kirby goes, 'You know, you have to support his neck.' Uh, okay! I actually know how to do this!"

As for King's latest family photos shared to Instagram over the weekend, it appears Luca is already showing love to his little sister.

In King’s post, she and her daughter can be seen wearing colorful dresses with baby Grayson sitting between them. Other images show Luca smiling at his grandmother as she holds Grayson, the whole family posing together and Luca staring proudly at his newborn sister.

Several fans and friends celebrated along with King, including Maria Shriver, Tina Knowles and CBS' Vladimir Duthiers. Knowles wished King a happy Mother's Day in the comment section of the images, calling her an "amazing mother" and adding: "Love you, Gayle.❤️"

It's been a major year so far for the King family, as back in February, the journalist shared that her son William was officially engaged to Elise Smith. In an Instagram post at the time, King took fans "behind the scenes of the proposal," in which she got a little help from pal Oprah Winfrey while orchestrating the moment.

“It has happened! Favorite son @willgb3 has found his person,” King wrote in the caption, “and I now have a favorite daughter-in-law to be: The lovely @elisemariesmith!”

King added that “a lot of planning went into this moment” — before joking “there were a lot of cooks in the kitchen.”
