She shared several photographs of their live conversation on Instagram, calling them her "sisters from another mister," saying it contained "shocking plot twists and a beautiful story of sisterly love from two sissies who show us how it's done."

"I love that it's about the sisters you're born with…and the sisters you find," she added, once again also calling them her "honorary sisters."

The two spoke further in the interview about not only their book, but also highlighted the story of two teen sisters from Pennsylvania as part of the stories they wanted to tell.

They also spoke to Savannah about Barbara raising six-month-old daughter Cora George and how she dealt with having her baby arrive six weeks early.

Jenna elaborated on how her own kids, Mila, Poppy, and Hal, reacted to news of their new cousin, with Hal's reaction being particularly adorable.

"Hal's named his baby doll Cora," she said. "He calls every baby he sees on the street Cora. He's like 'Cora!' and I go 'No…'," being met with laughter from both Savannah and Barbara.

Barbara also acted as the guest host with Jenna on Today with Hoda and Jenna in Hoda's absence, inadvertently also revealing that she doesn't really follow the show or follow their Instagram page.
