There are several more McCain kids, though.
Doug and Andy were adopted by the former senator while he was married to their mother, Carol Shepp.
The late politician and his wife also had a daughter, Sidney.
His second wife, Cindy, gave birth to Meghan, John IV, and James.
When she does emerge from her seclusion, though, she makes quite the splash.
Here’s what the reclusive member of the McCain family is really like.
In others, it was Mother Theresa herself.
What seems certain is that Cindy was determined to get medical care for two babies with significant health concerns.
When she landed in Arizona, Cindy said she told her husband what had happened.
John McCain told DadMag that the other baby was adopted by close friends.
It wasn’t easy.
The organization,per its website, provides free surgeries to children with cleft palettes.
The charity also provides other services, including dental care and speech therapy.
The close bond between the McCain sisters has remained strong into adulthood.
A rumor spread that McCain was an illegitimate child from an extramarital affair her father allegedly had.
Roy Fletcher, the politician’s deputy campaign manager, toldVanity Fairthat the onslaught was vicious.
The McCains were unable to shield their daughter.
“She was so upset, took it so personally,” Cindy told the outlet.
The young McCain was quite the athlete in high school, playing basketball and volleyball.
Like many teens, she said that she enjoyed spending time with her friends.
“He always puts family first!”
While she is on social media platforms, she’s not a frequent poster.
McCain also appears to have aFacebookaccount, although, again, there are few public posts.
“She’s kind of on the six-year plan,” she said.
“That’s okay though, I’ve been told that’s common so I’m not worried.”
Four years later,Peoplereported that McCain was still at Arizona State.
The outlet noted that she wasn’t studying special education, though, but speech and hearing instead.
There’s also the possibility that she was returning to school to pursue another degree.
McCain’s reading was from the book of Ecclesiastes.
She added that her daughter’s words were “beautifully written.”
Is Bridget the funniest of the McCain kids?
It’s clear that there is a lot more to Bridget McCain than meets the eye.
Cindy McCain revealed toPeoplethat her youngest is “very funny.”
That might not sound like the biggest compliment unless you’re familiar with John McCain’s comedic chops.
“A sense of humor got me through some very difficult situations in my life,” he said.
“Most Americans appreciate a sense of humor.”
According to her dad, his youngest kid is as strong as they come.
“She’s the toughest of the four,” he once told DadMag.
“The youngest always has to be the toughest.”
It’s clear that McCain was devoted to his youngest as he was to all of his kids.
“There is nothing in life like a child that you could nurture and love,” he said.
She even lives near her, as Cindy McCain revealed toPeople.
That’s because the McCains are incredibly wealthy.
This means that McCain will almost certainly one day be a millionaire even if she isn’t one already.
