Savannah Guthrie

Savannah Guthrie, a prominent anchor for NBC's 'Today' show, has recently returned to her on-air duties after a significant absence. Her mother, 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, was reportedly abducted from her Arizona home in early February, prompting Guthrie's leave. Guthrie made an emotional return to the 'Today' desk in April, expressing it was "good to be home" while the search for her mother continued. She has since made further pleas for information regarding her mother's whereabouts, which have now surpassed four months. Amidst these personal challenges, Guthrie is also set to host a new TV game show based on the popular Wordle game, marking her first new onscreen venture since her mother's disappearance. Her return to 'Today' signifies her resilience and commitment to her profession despite ongoing personal distress, with Guthrie stating that "joy will be my protest."
