Jenna Bush Hager is giving Craig Melvin the benefit of the doubt after he accidentally revealed her The Devil Wears Prada 2 cameo.
During the Monday, May 4, episode of TODAY With Jenna & Sheinelle, the host, 44, forgave her Today costar for spilling the major movie news on-air.

Jenna Bush Hager was shocked when Craig Melvin revealed her cameo.
“We’ve been talking for so long that Jenna had this cameo in the film, and you haven’t been able to talk about it until really now,” co-host Sheinelle Jones noted.
“I think they wanted the film to come out,” Bush Hager replied. “Craig didn’t mean to bust me, but he busted me, so therefore, it felt like there was this long window. But really, we weren’t supposed to be talking about it.”
Jones agreed it wasn’t a big deal Melvin gave things away because it created “buzz” that got people excited to watch Bush Hager’s cameo.
Craig Melvin Accidentally Reveals Jenna Bush Hager Is in 'The Devil Wears Prada 2'

Craig Melvin didn't know Jenna Bush Hager's movie news was a secret.
Melvin let it slip that his costar would appear in The Devil Wears Prada 2 on the Wednesday, April 8, installment.
“By the way, you know how [I know] that movie’s going to be good?” Melvin asked on Today. “You know how I can tell? JBH is in it!”
Bush Hager’s was left speechless, with her mouth hung open.
“I don’t know that you were supposed to drop that bomb, but if you’re…” the mom-of-three managed to respond.
“This is live. You cannot tell Craig anything!” Savannah Guthrie exclaimed.
Melvin insisted he thought it was “common knowledge” already, to which Al Roker quipped, “It is now!”
“Cut it out for the other feeds! Sorry about that JBH,” Melvin apologized.
“Why don’t you read my journal while you’re at it?” Guthrie joked.

Jenna Bush Hager Goes Behind the Scenes of Her 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' Cameo

Jenna Bush Hager arrived to 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' set late.
During Monday’s episode of Jenna & Sheinelle, Bush Hager detailed her exciting movie moment.
“I got invited to play myself, which is really the only part I can play,” she expressed.
Producers rolled a behind-the-scenes clip of her on the set of a fake Hamptons party, holding inauthentic wine.
“What is it, colored water?” Jones asked.
“I can’t remember. I didn’t drink it,” Bush Hager admitted.

Jenna Bush Hager had one line in 'The Devil Wears Prada 2.'
The 44-year-old didn’t have a wardrobe team and “put whatever [she] wanted on” to make her feel the most comfortable.
“It’s supposed to be a scene where Miranda, aka Meryl Streep, invites friends who are in the media business to her home, and it’s casual. She was even dressed casual in the scene. She was wearing a long-sleeved button-down and pants,” Bush Hager explained.
The media personality had one “unscripted” line where she was introduced to Anne Hathaway’s character.
“I say something like, ‘Great interview,’” Bush Hager recalled, noting she didn’t get to practice and was “on the fly” because she arrived on set later than the other stars.
“I made friends. We had a great time, and we were there all day,” she concluded. “By the end, everybody was like, ‘We ready. Let us go.’”
