Many of the Today show anchors not yet connected Savannah Guthrie during his break in the air following his mother Nancy Guthrie‘s continued to disappear.
“I don’t know if people realize, none of us have received many letters from him during this whole 54-day ordeal,” Carson Daly said during the broadcast on Thursday, March 26. So as we watch this with the world, we learn and learn more about our beloved friend.”

Savannah, 54, backed away from him Today last month after Nancy, 84, was reported missing in Arizona. He sat down with her Hoda Kotb for a touching conversationwhich first aired on Wednesday, March 25, continued on Thursday morning.
“I said, ‘You’re thinking [it was] because of me?’” Savannah recalled the conversation with her brother, Camerona former military intelligence officer. “He said, ‘I’m sorry, honey, but yes, maybe.’ I knew that. I hope not. I mean we still don’t know. In fact, we don’t know anything. We don’t know anything.”
According to Savannah, it was “too much to bear” I think she was the one who caused my mother’s possible abduction.
“[If] it’s because of me, I have to say I’m very sorry mom. I’m sorry,” the TV reporter added tearfully, “I’m sorry to my sister and brother and my children and my nephew and Tommy, my brother-in-law. I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry. If it’s me, I’m very sorry, I’m very sorry.”
Almost a month after Nancy was reported missing, police are still investigating her whereabouts. As for Savannah, she has been leaning on her faith to get through this tragedy.

“My faith you are strong and strong,” Savannah said Thursday. “I immediately felt – and I felt for one of the very few times in my life – I felt God speak to me. As I said to myself, ‘I can handle anything, God. I can handle anything, I just can’t handle not knowing. I have to know.’ I heard a voice say, ‘You know where he is – he’s with me.’
Although Savannah and her siblings weren’t sure if Nancy was “still on this earth” or “in heaven,” they wanted to make peace.
“We need to know,” he said, later adding, “There’s someone who needs to do the right thing. We’re in pain. It’s unbearable. And thinking about what he’s going through. I wake up every night in the middle of the night. Every night. And in the dark, I think of his fear. And it’s unimaginable. He needs to go home now.”
