Savannah Guthrie to return to ‘Today’ on April 6 as ‘part of my purpose’ in search for her mom Savannah Guthrie, cohost of the “Today” show, will return to the program on April 6, her colleagues announced, as she continues her search for her missing 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie. During an interview with Hoda Kotb that aired on Friday, Guthrie expressed her emotional struggle, saying, “I don’t know if I can do it. I don’t know if I’ll belong anymore. And I would like to try. I would like to try.” She emphasized that her return is “part of my purpose,” stating, “I can’t not come back. This is my family.” Nancy Guthrie was last seen on the night of January 31 and reported missing the next day from her home in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson, Arizona. Guthrie described her anguish, saying she wants to return to work to “smile, and when I do, it will be real, and my joy will be my protest.” She acknowledged the pain of her situation but vowed not to let grief overwhelm her, stating, “I will not fall apart. I will not let whoever did this take my children’s mother from them.” Guthrie’s return to the “Today” show will occur the day after Easter Sunday, a time she has reflected on deeply due to her mother’s strong Christian faith. Nancy Guthrie, who was reported missing after skipping a gathering to watch an online church service, was a devout believer. Guthrie shared how her mother taught her to wrestle with faith during difficult times, including when her husband died from a heart attack when Guthrie was 16. “She taught me. I saw her grieve. I saw her world shatter. I saw it, and I saw her get up,” Guthrie said, adding that she is drawing strength from her mother’s example.#tucson_arizona #hoda_kotb #savannah_guthrie #catalina_foothills #pima_county_sheriff_department
Nancy Guthrie's Disappearance Remains a Mystery as Investigation Gains Momentum The search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show cohost Savannah Guthrie, has entered its second month without significant progress. Authorities in Pima County, Arizona, are investigating a damaged utility box near her home as a potential link to the internet outage that occurred the night she vanished. The outage, which disrupted nearby home surveillance cameras, has raised questions about its connection to her disappearance. Guthrie was last seen around 9:45 p.m. on February 1, when she was dropped off at her home in the Catalina Foothills by her family after dinner with her daughter, Annie Guthrie. Her pacemaker stopped syncing with her Apple devices at 2:28 a.m., and she was reported missing around noon the next day. Investigators believe she may have been abducted, though no definitive evidence has been found. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has focused on the damaged utility box located around the corner from Guthrie’s home. Officials suspect it could be tied to the internet outage that occurred around the time of her disappearance. Neighbors reported that home security camera footage from that night is missing or marked “not available,” prompting authorities to ask residents about unusual connectivity issues. Despite no major breakthroughs, Sheriff Chris Nanos told the Today show that investigators are “definitely closer” to solving the case. He emphasized that a dedicated team from his department’s homicide unit is working with the FBI, assuming Guthrie is still alive. “We’ve got a lot of intel, a lot of leads, but now it’s time to just go to work,” Nanos said. The family has offered a $1 million reward for information leading to Guthrie’s “recovery.#fbi #nancy_guthrie #savannah_guthrie #pima_county #catalina_foothills
