HOLIDAY HEARTBREAK: Today co-hosts REVEAL 2025 holiday card – but fans are DEVASTATED beloved star is missing from PHOTOS

TODAY co-hosts have unveiled their 2025 holiday card, but fans are disappointed that one beloved star is missing from the photos.

The TV stars released their annual card on Monday on the show’s social media platforms.

It included a video of the main hosts enjoying winter activities such as building a snowman, having a snowball fight, and drinking hot cocoa in a snowy field.

A photo was also shared of the NBC stars – Willie Geist, Sheinelle Jones, Dylan Dreyer, Peter Alexander, Kristen Welker, Jenna Bush Hager, Al Roker, Savannah Guthrie, Craig Melvin, and Carson Daly – gathered together in the snowy scene with “Happy Holidays” written across the bottom.

The caption echoed the message, reading, “Happy Holidays from our family to yours!”

While many fans commented with warm wishes for the Today show family, others were devastated that former co-anchor Hoda Kotb was omitted from the card.

Hoda anchored the first two hours of Today alongside Savannah and hosted the fourth hour, initially with Kathie Lee Gifford and later Jenna.

The seasoned journalist announced in September 2024 her plans to leave Today at the beginning of this year to spend more time with her daughters, Haley Joy, 8, and Hope Catherine, 6.

Hoda opened up about her decision to step down from her broadcasting role in an interview with People.

“It’s really cool to just realize that there’s so much more to life,” the TV personality told the outlet, five months after leaving Today.

“I wasn’t able to bear witness to my kids’ daily lives because of what I was doing. I got to see Haley sing ‘What a Wonderful World’ at 9:15 a.m. — I would have missed that.

“I used to think life was the big things, but it really is all the stuff that happens in between.”

Hoda took a long absence from her co-hosting duties in February 2023 after her youngest, Hope, came down with a mysterious illness that resulted in a two-week-long hospital stay.

The mom of two later revealed that Hope was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and was being monitored 24 hours a day.

“I really wanted to and needed to be here to watch over her. So, whenever she needs anything, and it can happen at night, multiple times, I’m up — I’m up up up,” Hoda said about stepping away from the morning show.

“But I would never, ever want Hope to one day grow up and say, ‘Oh, my mom left her job because [of me].’ It wasn’t that alone. But if you look at it cumulatively, it was a part of that decision,” she added.

With a less demanding schedule working from home, Hoda is now available around the clock for her girls, although she has returned to the studio several times since her initial departure in January.

She returned to her post as co-host of the annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday, alongside Savannah and Al.

Hoda also appeared on Today in September while promoting her new memoir, Jump and Find Joy: Embracing Change in Every Season of Life.
