Savannah Guthrie Returns to Today After 64 Days as Search for Missing Mother Offers $1.2 Million Reward

Summary

  • Sixty-four days after Nancy Guthrie disappeared, Savannah Guthrie returned to NBC's "Today," ending speculation that she might not come back to the morning show.
  • Yellow clothing and a matching ribbon signaled support for her mother, but Guthrie and co-hosts kept the broadcast largely businesslike, mentioning her absence only briefly before she became emotional later on the plaza.
  • Vulture reported Guthrie was stung by industry doubts about her return and worried both about holding it together on air and whether the case's shadow could hurt the show.
  • Nancy Guthrie vanished Feb. 1 after being dropped at home; investigators believe she was taken against her will, and doorbell footage showed a masked, armed man with a black Ozark Trail backpack.
  • More than $1.2 million in reward money is now offered as authorities weigh unverified ransom notes and TMZ emails claiming two kidnappers and possible video evidence.
