In the midst of an unsettling investigation concerning her missing mother, Savannah Guthrie has found solace and support from her Today show colleagues, both current and former. The disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, 84, was reported by her family on Sunday, after she was last seen in Tucson, Arizona, on Saturday. The case has taken a serious turn with homicide detectives stepping in due to ‘concerning’ evidence discovered at her residence.

With the sad news making headlines, Guthrie’s Today show family has rallied around her, sending encouraging messages and urging the public to contribute any information that might help. Leading the supportive charge, Hoda Kotb took to social media on Monday morning, posting an evocative image of the word ‘hope.’ She left the post without further explanation, allowing the single word to carry profound weight.

In a more personal gesture, the 61-year-old co-host shared a touching photograph of Savannah Guthrie with her mother on the Today show set. Accompanied by a prayer emoji and a heart, this image served as a poignant reminder of the bond between them and a call for collective prayers and positive thoughts during this difficult time.
