Savannah Guthrie recently shared why she returned to hosting the Today show, even as the search for her mother, Nancy Guthrie, continues. Nancy was last seen at her Tucson, Arizona home on January 31 and has been missing for over five months. Despite the ongoing investigation and the profound emotional impact, Guthrie returned to the airwaves on April 6.
Speaking with co-host Jenna Bush Hager on June 8, Guthrie described her return as providing "two hours of my day" that bring joy and a sense of purpose. She acknowledged that her work is not a sign of forgetting her mother but rather a way to manage during this difficult period. Guthrie emphasized the continued need for public prayers and any information that might help the investigation.
In addition to her Today show commitments, Guthrie is preparing to host a new game show for NBC. This project, produced by The New York Times, has been in development for over two years. Filming for the main show is scheduled to begin in Manchester, England, over the summer. Production had previously been postponed due to her mother's disappearance, with the team accommodating the delay.
