Savannah Guthrie is reportedly stepping away from Today for the “foreseeable future” as she focuses on personal matters involving her family.
Sources close to the situation say the decision comes amid an ongoing search connected to her mother, Nancy. While specific details have not been publicly confirmed, the situation is described as deeply personal and understandably requiring Guthrie’s full attention away from television commitments.
NBC has not announced a permanent replacement, and co-anchors are expected to rotate in her absence. Colleagues on the program have expressed support, emphasizing that family comes first during difficult times.
Guthrie has long been one of the most visible faces of the morning news program, known for balancing major breaking stories with personal warmth on air. Her temporary departure marks a significant shift for the show, though network insiders stress that it is not being framed as permanent.
Viewers have taken to social media to send well wishes, with many noting her openness over the years about the importance of family.

At this stage, no official timeline has been given for her return. NBC has indicated that updates will be shared when appropriate, but for now, the focus remains on supporting Guthrie and her family during what appears to be a challenging period.
