Others couldn’t get over Duke’s resemblance to both parents.
“Duke is the perfect combination of both of you!” one follower commented.

Several longtime viewers also reminisced about Giuliana’s television career.
“I miss seeing you on TV ~ you were my fav,” one fan shared.
Bill and Giuliana have long invited viewers into their family life.
The Couple Have Been Open About Their IVF Journey
Giuliana became a household name during her years as co-anchor of E! News, while the couple also starred together on the reality series “Giuliana and Bill,” which documented both their careers and personal lives.
Over the years, the pair have also been candid about the challenges they faced before welcoming Duke.
In a previous interview with People, Giuliana reflected on her difficult fertility journey and the gratitude she feels for the family they ultimately built.
“For me, my faith is very strong,” she said. “When we got married and we set out to start a family, we didn’t realize that we were going to have the path we had, which was struggling to get pregnant in fertility.”
After undergoing IVF, the couple welcomed Duke in 2012.
“IVF thankfully, we’re fortunate enough to have a wonderful healthy child,” she explained. “We always thought we were going to… even in interviews before, Bill and I would say, ‘Oh we want four kids.’ But it’s like, God gives you what is right for you.”
Looking back, Giuliana says she’s thankful they chose to publicly discuss their fertility struggles because of the impact it has had on others facing similar experiences.
“I’m glad we did,” she said. “The fact that our story impacted people makes it worth it for sure.”
She added that despite not having the large family they once envisioned, they wouldn’t change what they have today.
“We always say we’re a small but mighty family,” Giuliana shared. “We are always together, the three of us. We have a lot of fun together.”
