We are back to work after an extra day off. You know, we were supposed to have a show last night, but we didn’t because my daughter had a baby last night.”
Jimmy shared that his 33-year-old daughter Katie Kimmel gave birth to her first child with husband Will Logsdon.
He added, “My oldest daughter – you know, people don’t realize, people that know I have two little kids, they don’t know I have to older kids. My oldest daughter, she’s 83-years-old. Her name is Katie. Katie and her husband Will had a baby girl right at the time we shoot our show last night. So I decided to be there instead here.”
