Savannah Guthrie’s return date to the “Today” show may be coming into view, as her family continues to search for her missing mother, Nancy Guthrie. After weeks away from the anchor desk, a new report suggests the broadcaster hopes to return to Studio 1A soon, though insiders emphasize that nothing is set in stone. As of now, the show continues to rotate anchors in her place while Guthrie’s colleagues are keeping the seat open for her.
Savannah Guthrie could return to ‘Today’ show by April 10, speculates source
A source exclusively told Page Six that Savannah Guthrie hopes to return to the “Today” show after her children’s spring break, with a new date coming into the picture. As such, the outlet noted that many New York schools will return by April 10. However, the source claimed that plans could still change as Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance case develops and as the anchor decides to spend time with her husband, Michael Feldman, and their two children, Vale and Charley, before she goes back on air.
Moreover, the source pointed to many personal factors, including her missing mother. Nancy Guthrie remains missing after she disappeared from her Arizona home earlier this year, with authorities treating the case as a suspected abduction, and the investigation involving both local law enforcement and federal authorities.
While Guthrie stays off the show, Hoda Kotb has continued to fill in. Additionally, Page Six reported that Kotb has upcoming commitments to the launch of her Joy 101 app, after recently hosting a wellness retreat in Scottsdale from March 13 to 15. Even so, a source told the outlet that Kotb’s schedule does not create problems because other anchors can step in as needed.
However, another source claimed, “There is no announcement regarding Savannah’s return date, and Hoda will remain filling in for her,” even though Guthrie visited her co-workers on the “Today” show, telling them, “I have every intention of coming back.” She added, “I don’t know how to come back, but I don’t know how not to.”
