William Hall "Billy" Bush (born October 13, 1971) is an American radio and television host, and a member of the Bush family that includes two former U.S. presidents and other nationally known political figures spanning several generations.
After first appearing as a correspondent on Access Hollywood from 2001 to 2004, Bush became a primary anchor of the program in 2004. Bush also hosted The Billy Bush Show, a nationally syndicated talk and music radio show that aired from 2008 to 2014. He departed Access Hollywood in 2016, after being named a co-host of the third hour of Today. In October 2016, during the 2016 presidential election he became the subject of controversy when a secret 2005 recording surfaced of him and presidential candidate Donald Trump having a lewd conversation; due to this incident, Bush was suspended and later resigned from Today.
William Hall Bush was born in Manhattan, New York, to Josephine (née Bradley) and Jonathan Bush. Billy Bush's uncle (his father's older brother) is George H. W. Bush, the 41st President of the United States. George W. Bush, the 43rd President, and former Florida governor Jeb Bush are Billy Bush's first cousins.
Bush attended middle school at St. Bernard's School in Manhattan and high school at St. George's School in Middletown, Rhode Island. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies and Government from Colby College in 1994. He was also a four-year letterman and a two-time co-captain as a junior and senior with the Mules' men's lacrosse team. He is currently 4th (182), 8th (97) and 4th (85) in career points, goals and assists respectively in program history and was a first-team All-NESCAC in 1994.
