Kathie's fashion was just as stylish in all three photos too, with the TV star wearing a gorgeous black lace dress in the first image, and a turquoise slip dress in the second. In the final photo, Kathie stunned in an off-the-shoulder red dress.

The star shares her two children with late husband Frank Gifford, and often pays heartfelt tributes to him on social media on poignant anniversaries such as his birthday.

Kathie became a first-time grandmother earlier in the year when her son Cody and his wife Erika welcomed their first child, who they named Frank Michael in honor of Cody's late father.

Alongside the picture, she wrote: "My heart is bursting. Frank Michael Gifford is here, confirming that our God is good and merciful and faithful. And he loves us!"

Discussing the significance of her grandchild's name shortly after his arrival, Kathie made an appearance on Today with Hoda & Jenna, to talk to her former co-star Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager, who replaced her following her departure from the NBC show in 2019.

She said that Frank's name had been a surprise to her, telling the hosts: "I guess, [Cody] never got over, and he never will, the loss of his dad at an early age," the TV personality added. "He was his hero and still is."
