Today‘s Dylan Dreyer is sharing an update on co-star Savannah Guthrie‘s future on the show amid the ongoing search for her missing mother Nancy.

In an interview posted by TMZ on Tuesday, Mar. 10, the meteorologist says she believes Guthrie will return to Today eventually—she just doesn’t know when.

On Thursday, Mar. 5, Savannah paid her first visit to the Today set since her mother’s disappearance and told her colleagues she plans to return to show. She also expressed her gratitude for the support shown to her family since the disappearance of Nancy on Feb. 1.

“I have every intention of coming back,” Savannah told her colleagues, per the Today Show. “I don’t know how to come back, but I don’t know how not to. You’re my family. And I would like to try.”

Dreyer, for her part, said seeing Savannah for the first time in over a month was “what we all needed.”

“It was exactly what we needed to just hug her, pray for her. 
I mean, it was amazing,” she said. “I think she needed us as much as we needed to see her. She wants to go back to life and doesn’t know how to do it, you know? So to just kind of show up, get the hugs from us, hear from us, see us face to face, I think it was important for all of us.”

Hoda Kotb has been filling in for Savannah since Feb. 6, marking her first return to the show since retiring in January 2025.

Though Dreyer doesn’t know the exact timeline of Savannah’s return, she’s confident she’ll come back at some point or another.

“I do,” Dreyer responded when asked if she thinks Savannah will return. “None of us know what that looks like. 
She doesn’t know what that looks like. But we’re all open to it. We love her dearly, and we want her back.”

Nancy Guthrie is still missing. The FBI urges anyone with tips or leads to call 1-800-CALL-FBI in addition to the Pima County Sheriff’s Office number, 520-351-4900. A $1 million reward is currently being offered for information leading to the safe return or recovery of Nancy.
