Hoda Kotb MIA From Today Show
Hoda Kotb was a staple on the Today Show for nearly twenty years. She took a step back from her full-time hosting duties in January 2025 to spend more time with her kids. She returned for special events, like the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade in November. Hoda Kotb, Savannah Guthrie, and Craig Melvin were supposed to cover the 2026 Winter Olympics in February but those plans changed after Savannah Guthrie’s mother went missing.

The longtime Today Show host immediately took a leave of absence while the police searched for her elderly mother. Hoda Kotb returned to the NBC morning program in Savannah Guthrie’s absence. Online sources speculated that Hoda Kotb’s return might be permanent as the search for Savannah Guthrie’s mother drags on.
However, viewers were surprised on Tuesday, March 3, when Hoda Kotb was MIA. Craig Melvin started the show off by mentioning that audience members were wearing yellow ribbons in honor of Savannah Guthrie’s mother. He went on to introduce his co-host for the morning – Sheinelle Jones. Craig Melvin didn’t share the reason for Hoda Kotb’s surprising absence or when she will return.
Investigation ‘Close’ To Finding Suspects In Nancy Guthrie’s Puzzling Disappearance
Nancy Guthrie, 84, was reported missing on Sunday, February 1. The local sheriff’s department has been searching for her ever since. The FBI joined the search at President Trump’s request. However, there have been very few leads about where she might be or who has her.

The investigators revealed from the beginning that they suspected that Savannah Guthrie’s mother was kidnapped. The Today Show host offered a $1 million reward for any information that leads to finding her mother. The investigation seemed to stall, but Sheriff Chris Nanos shared hopeful news.
According to PEOPLE magazine, he shared an update on Tuesday’s episode of the Today Show. “I think that investigators are definitely closer. We’ve got a lot of intel, a lot of leads, but now it’s time to just go to work,” he said, when asked if they’re close to finding a suspect or suspects.
Savannah Guthrie Spotted Outside Missing Mom’s Home
It’s been over a month since Savannah Guthrie’s mother has been missing. However, the morning host and her family aren’t giving up hope. Cameras captured Savannah Guthrie, her sister Annie, and her brother-in-law, Tommaso, putting flowers at the memorial outside Nancy Guthrie’s home in Arizona.
Annie’s husband, Tommaso, was an early suspect of social media sleuths. However, the investigators have since cleared the Guthrie family, including Tommaso, of any involvement in the disappearance.
