How Many Grandchildren Does Nancy Pelosi Have?

According to Biography, Nancy Pelosi tackled local politics as she raised her children, and won a special election in 1987 to join the House of Representatives. She told The Lily in 2019 that she "was really forged by" her kids as she embraced politics and that there is "no question" she "became so energized and efficient in the use of time and willing to delegate" thanks to her kids. More recently, she told Mika Brzezinski on "Morning Joe" that her motivation to enter politics "sprang from being a mom," per NBC. Her youngest child was a senior in high school when she ran for office, U.S. News & World Report noted, and as Extra detailed, she was already a grandmother as she took her oath.

In July 2020, Pelosi spoke with Craig Melvin, and noted she had "nine grandchildren from grade school all the way up to college." All four of the politician's daughters have children, while her son, Paul Jr., does not. Pelosi's oldest daughter, Corinne Prowda, has a daughter, Madeleine, and a son, Alexander, per East Valley Tribune. Daughter Christine has a son, Octavio, and a daughter, Bella. Daughter Jacqueline has three sons: Liam, Sean, and Ryan, per Irish Examiner. Interestingly enough, all three of Jacqueline's sons were baptized in Ireland, at the Kilquade church in County Wicklow. This was their paternal grandfather's home prior to moving to Texas. Finally, Alexandra, Pelosi's youngest daughter, has two sons named Paul and Thomas, per Your Tango.
