Savannah Guthrie Recalls Cringe-Worthy Kardashian Interview Blunder
20 Oct
Summary
- Savannah Guthrie asked Khloé Kardashian about paternity rumors just before a live TV segment
- Guthrie felt "so embarrassed" by the moment, but Khloé handled it with class
- Guthrie has since been open about other on-air flubs in her career
In October 2025, Savannah Guthrie, the 53-year-old co-host of the Today show, reflected on an early career mistake she made during a 2012 interview with Khloé Kardashian. Guthrie recalled that just before a live TV segment, she asked Khloé about the rumors that the late Robert Kardashian was not her biological father.
Guthrie admitted that she felt "so embarrassed" by the moment, explaining that she had felt pressure from producers to ask the "dishy question." However, Khloé, now 41, handled the situation with grace, simply responding, "Ah, nothing to it." Guthrie praised Khloé, saying she "saved my butt" and that she is "a doll."
Since then, Guthrie has been open about other on-air flubs in her career. In May 2025, she acknowledged asking Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts a question she called her "career lowlight." Despite these occasional missteps, Guthrie has gone on to co-anchor the main news hour of the Today show alongside Craig Melvin.
