I Will Not Hide My Face - Savannah Guthrie Breaks Down in Emotional First Interview Since Her Mother's Disappearance
Savannah Guthrie has shared her first interview since her mother, Nancy Guthrie, went missing.
On Wednesday, March 25, Hoda Kotb told viewers on Today that she sat down with Guthrie for a long, emotional conversation. The full interview is scheduled to air on Thursday, March 26, and Friday, March 27.
Before showing a clip from the conversation, Kotb said, “Craig, Al, and Carson, it was a really emotional conversation. We want to share one moment where Savannah speaks directly to anyone who might have information about Nancy.”
In the clip, Guthrie, visibly holding back tears, said, “Someone needs to do the right thing. We are in agony. We are in agony. It is unbearable.”
She went on, “And to think of what she went through. I wake up every night, in the middle of the night, every night, and in the darkness, I imagine her terror. And it is unthinkable, but those thoughts demand to be thought. I will not hide my face. But she needs to come home now.”
Afterward, Carson Daly asked Kotb how Guthrie was holding up. Kotb responded, “I’m ok. There is a desperation and also a steeliness about Savannah.
She is hoping that whoever knows something will speak up. In the coming days, she talks about many things, the investigation, her faith, and how she is getting through this.”
Kotb added that Guthrie also spoke about “how God’s holding her hand,” noting how remarkable it was that she could sit through the interview, share her thoughts so openly, and remain composed while expressing her pain and hope.
The interview follows Guthrie’s emotional return to the Today set in New York City on March 5, her first visit since coming back from Arizona.
At that time, she reunited with the staff and crew, thanking them for their prayers and support, saying, “You care about my mom as much as I do. I have every intention of coming back. I don’t know how to come back, but I don’t know how not to. You’re my family, and I would like to try.”
Guthrie’s interview with Kotb offers a deeply personal glimpse into her grief, her faith, and her determination to see her mother safely return.
