Celebs React to the Death of Barbara Bush

Former First Lady Barbara Bush passed away yesterday at the age of 92, The Advocatereports.

Bush, who was the wife of former president George H.W. Bush and mother of former president George W. Bush, was known for her outspoken personality and unfettered persona. The Bushes remain the longest-standing marriage in presidential history.

Some of Bush's final political remarks in her lifetime criticized the current POTUS. "Trump is like a comedian or like a showman or something," she said in an interview with CNN, adding: "I don't know how women can vote for someone who said what he said about Megyn Kelly. It's incomprehensible to me."

Celebrities have reacted over social media to the former First Lady's death:
