She has also written several books about her spiritual journey as a Christian.
While speaking to The List, Gifford opened up about her role as a grandmother.
She shared how she’s prioritizing her family while living separately and how her grandson has enhanced her faith.

One of the most important things to her now is her growing family.
“I have a new grandson.
I want to spend a little more time with him.

I want a rich, joyful life, stay healthy, and don’t sweat the stupid stuff anymore.
It’s not necessary,” she said.
“Here, people show up [and ask], ‘Want to write a song?’

If I can, I go, ‘Yeah, come on in.’
It’s a very different lifestyle in Greenwich, Connecticut, believe me.
I don’t miss that,” Gifford said.
“I miss my home there.
I miss my little grandson, but I get back enough to get a taste of it.
This is where I’m supposed to be now, in Tennessee, for sure,” she said.
It was all familiar," Gifford said.
The times holding her newborn grandson and singing to him were very spiritual for Gifford.
Little babies know that, inherently …
They’re miracles straight from God.'
It’s a great blessing."
