The couple's marriage was followed by the births of their two daughters in 1907 and 1909. The daughters married in 1929 and 1932, and Germaine Coty very soon became a multiple hands-on grandmother, a role which she greatly relished for the rest of her life. The younger of the two daughters, Anne-Marie (1909-1987), married the otorhinolaryngologist turned politician Maurice Georges, who in 1974 was among those who signed the so-called "Call of the 43 [politicians]", urging Valéry Giscard d'Estaing to stand for the presidency in that year's presidential election (though he subsequently left the "group of 43" following a disagreement).
