Harry and Jill welcomed their first daughter, Georgia Tatom Connick, on April 17, 1996, and she grew up in a small town in Connecticut, called New Canaan
But Georgia, now 28, has been honest about how it was 'difficult' to grow up with her parents in the spotlight, telling WHO, 'People can have a certain view on you before meeting'

Harry and Jill welcomed their first daughter, Georgia Tatom Connick, on April 17, 1996.
They tried their best to give their daughters a normal childhood out of the spotlight, raising them in a small town in Connecticut, called New Canaan, about 50 miles from New York City.
They lived in a stunning home - which the couple had purchased in 1998 for $1.5 million and listed for $7.5 million in 2017 - which was converted from a barn originally built in 1890.
The 11,600-square-foot abode sat on 4.6 acres of property and boasted seven bedrooms, 25-foot-high ceilings, a granite fireplace, heated swimming pool with its own pool house, and a gym.
'We like the fact that it's a pretty laid-back life here in Connecticut. We can just be home,' Henry told People back in 2013.
'There's no scene. We can just live our lives and not really deal with the industry.'
But Georgia, now 28, has been honest about how it was 'difficult' to grow up with her parents in the spotlight.
'It was difficult, I'm not going to lie and say it wasn't… I think people can have a certain view on you before meeting,' she told WHO.
'But I think my parents have taught us so much - to treat people like they don't know you at all, so you can give them the best version of yourself, and to treat everyone with respect and just hope that they can see us as we see ourselves.'
After graduating from New Canaan High School in 2015, she headed to Tulane University for college.
After a year, she transferred to New York University, where she studied photography and filmmaking at the Tisch School Of The Arts.
In August 2015, it was reported that Georgia had been arrested and charged with permitting minors to possess alcohol and procuring alcohol for minors after she hosted a party inside the family's New Canaan home while her parents were away.

He also said they have not been treated special because of their famous parents, and insisted that they had achieved all of their success on their own
'The main thing for Jill and for me when they were little is to raise these smart, incredible women, and I really could care less what they choose [to do in life],' he said.
He also said they have not been treated special because of their famous parents when the publication brought up the term 'nepo babies,' insisting that they had achieved all of their success on their own.
'They know that the combination of Jill and me is something that has led to a person that's completely unique and that's times three. Obviously, they're aware of who they are, but they don't use it,' he stated.
'Plus, I don't think people are going to tolerate that, like Georgia is studying to be a cinematographer.
'I don't care what her name is. If she can't light something, she's not going to work.
'Same for Kate's acting… if they're not any good that's not gonna last. So they're aware of that and that's why they work so hard.'
