Duck Dynasty star Jessica Robertson has reacted on social media after her daughter Priscilla, 19, welcomed her first child.
Taking to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, October 9, Jessica shared how happy she was about the new arrival.
“We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our granddaughter, August Mae Nash,” Jessica, 44, posted, sharing an image of the newborn’s hand.
Jessica sent well wishes to Priscilla and her boyfriend, Dillion Nash, as they began their parenting journey.
“Congratulations Priscilla and Dillon on the arrival of one of God’s greatest blessings,” Jessica continued. “We are all just head over heels in love with this sweet angel baby.”
One day prior, the young couple announced that Priscilla had given birth to their first child on Monday, October 6.
“On October 6th I was blessed with the responsibility and the title to become a father,” Nash wrote via Instagram on Wednesday. “I am so blessed to be able to take care of this beautiful little girl and do it with the love of my life @priscillajunerobertson. We are so proud to welcome August Mae Nash to the World ❤️❤️.”

Priscilla, who is the daughter of Jessica and Jep Robertson, reshared Nash’s post and added, “Our Beautiful Baby is Here 🩷🎀☺️.”
In July, Jessica shared via Instagram that her then 18-year-old daughter Priscilla was pregnant.
“Me & Jep [Robertson] are excited to welcome another new grandbaby in October,” Jessica wrote via Instagram on July 20, alongside photos of Priscilla holding her baby bump. “Priscilla will give birth to our granddaughter & we are blessed to add another grandbaby.”
Jessica, who also shares kids Lily, 22, Merritt, 20, River, 16, and Gus, 9, with Jep, 47, admitted that Priscilla’s pregnancy wasn’t in “the plans“ that they “laid out” for her.
“But God takes our meager offerings and turns them into His greatest blessings!” she wrote. “We are so proud that Priscilla & Dillon chose life for their baby and we will all be rewarded with this precious baby girl! We pray blessings on her pregnancy & ask God for a safe delivery for Mom & Baby. We praise God for His perfect gifts! 💛Pray for us! 3 babies under 1!”
In August, Priscilla briefly addressed becoming pregnant at a young age via an Instagram post which was accompanied with hashtags.
“Once upon a time a boy loved a girl 💕 now they are about to love someone even more 🩷🩵#teenmom #1sttimemom #boyorgirl @dillonnnash,” she wrote.
The Robertson family became household names thanks to A&E, and they’ve stayed on fans’ minds ever since their series ended. Duck Dynasty gave viewers an inside look at the lives of the Louisiana natives and their business, Duck Commander. The hit reality show premiered in March 2012 and ended in March 2017 after 11 seasons. […]
Throughout her pregnancy, Priscilla posted several photos of her growing baby bump as shared her excitement about her pregnancy journey.
“So I’m 34 weeks today… @dillonnnash and I are getting into our nesting stage and have loved getting ready to meet our baby girl!! #thirdtrimester #girlmom,” she posted in early September.
By the end of September, she and Nash had thrown a baby shower, and Priscilla posted about the event via Instagram.
“@dillonnnash and I had a great night celebrating our baby girl on the way with his family!” she captioned a carousel of photos taken at the baby shower. “We are so thankful for the love and support shown to us these past few months! and I’m so grateful to be apart of a family like his! #babyshower.”
Priscilla’s parents rose to fame on the reality series Duck Dynasty, which ran from 2012 to 2017. Jessica and Jep, who is the son of Phil Robertson and Kay Robertson, tied the knot in 2001 and went on to have their own show, Jep & Jessica: Growing the Dynasty, which aired from 2016 to 2017.
