After a heartfelt goodbye spanning 17 years, Hoda Kotb parted ways with the Today Show where she shared the screen with Savannah Guthrie and Jenna Bush Hager. In this emotional moment, she conveyed her appreciation to the viewers, the show’s team, NBC network, and her fellow anchors for their unwavering support during her tenure.
As she bid farewell from the channel for good, the mother of two expressed a touching tribute towards Al Roker, Guthrie, and Craig Melvin. In an emotional speech filled with tears, Kotb conveyed her gratitude, saying “I can’t even find the words because I’m usually a wreck, but all I want to say is thank you.
Additionally, she mentioned, “Carson [Daly], you’re akin to the hidden flavor in this program, my friend. The show wouldn’t run smoothly without your presence. You possess an undeniable charm, and you consistently contribute it each day.
The host of the talk show went on expressing her thanks, referring to Roker as the very first colleague she encountered upon joining the set and the first one to forge a friendship. She further mentioned, “Al, you were my initial friend here, the initial face I saw. When I fell ill, you were the first person who entered the room and assured me that everything would be alright.
Following this, Kotb acknowledged and thanked Guthrie and Malvin by saying, “Who’s always there for everyone? It’s her.” The anchor then pointed out that her fellow host was like a pillar of support standing beside her.
She expressed, “Whenever your brother passed away, it was her. During my struggles with Hope, it was also her. She’s here now. She’s constantly present, and I care for you deeply.
Regarding Malvin, Kotb simply encouraged him and complimented him on his well-deserved position. The 60-year-old expressed her joy by saying, “Craig, honestly, I couldn’t be happier for you.” She added, “You deserve this. It’s yours. And on Monday at 7:00 a.m., I might still be asleep. But you’re going to shine. You’re going to excel. Craig, you’re going to do great. You and Savannah are going to be amazing together.
Hoda Kotb shared that she would be leaving the Today Show in September, indicating that she wants to devote more time to her children and loved ones.
