Jenna Bush Hager's eldest daughter had some secrets to spill about her mom on a recent episode of Today with Hoda and Jenna.

On Tuesday, Margaret "Mila" Bush, Hager Bush's nine-year-old daughter made an appearance on the popular daytime TV show alongside the two hosts.

After spending some time discussing the family's new pet cat, the topic moved to Kotb's favorite thing about Hager Bush.

"You know when I love her the most, Mila?" Asked the 58-year-old co-host. "[It's] when she's laughing so hard she can't catch her breath."

"Yeah, one time she was laughing in our living room and she peed her pants!" Mila added, telling her mom: "You changed your pajamas!"

"Thank you, Mila," Bush Hager replied, clearly a little embarrassed. "Thank you so much."

After Kotb's attempts to get Mila to expose a few more hilarious stories about her mom, Bush Hager tried to shut down the conversation.

However, the nine-year-old wasn't done yet as she confirmed one more rumor that had been circulating for a little while now... That the former first daughter enjoys going commando!

"She never wears underwear! Mila exclaimed. "She is not wearing it right now! I saw her change!"

"OK, goodbye! Goodbye, I love you!" Bush Hager quickly interjected as her daughter finally left the stage.

The two hosts shared a laugh about the silly story before Hager Bush joked about her daughter loving to drop "truth bombs."

Watch the hilarious moment below:

Now this isn't the first time Bush Hager's behind-the-scenes antics have been publicized.

On an episode of the Today show last month, Kotb told a live audience (and the rest of the world) that she learned something new about the former first daughter - that she enjoys going commando even before filming!

"She [Bush Hager] always looks put together," Kotb said before going on to reveal that she had a "little shock" that morning before the pair were scheduled to start their show.

"You promised me you wouldn't do this," Bush Hager can be heard protesting. "There's a lot of people here... [but] go ahead!"

"I was a little surprised because Jen and I know a lot about each other," Kotb continued, explaining that the two friends had to get changed before the show when she noticed that the 41-year-old wasn't wearing any underwear - much to the amusement of the audience members.

"I just had a little shock with it," she admitted.

Despite Bush Hager being embarrassed about the story initially, she defended her choice saying: "I think it makes a more pretty silhouette! I also think you don't have to pack as much. There's a lot of pros to it!

"I'm sure my mom has never been more proud," she jokingly added.

The two hosts then went on to discuss more pros of going commando, even getting the approval of their show's wardrobe supervisor who said "it actually does make life a lot easier."

But as for the downsides, Kotb noted that "it's a lot of washing of clothes, over and over."

"But it's also not like I'm sharing your jeans with you," the former first daughter pointed out. "Though I do steal Savannah [Guthrie]'s pants on occasion... And I do want to borrow that red suit of yours. Can I?"

"Yes, you can, anytime," Kotb said.

"I'll wear underwear," joked Bush Hager.

Today with Hoda and Jenna is available to watch on NBC.
