Savannah Guthrie is facing an emotional milestone as she marks her first Easter since the disappearance of her mother, Nancy—a moment shaped by both grief and faith.
In a heartfelt video shared during a digital Easter service for a New York church, the longtime Today show host opened up about the pain she has been carrying. She admitted that in the wake of her mother’s kidnapping on February 1, she struggled deeply, even feeling “disappointment with God” as uncertainty clouded each day.
Guthrie explained that the hardest part has been not knowing where her mother is or what may have happened, a reality that continues to weigh heavily on her and her family.
Despite the anguish, she leaned on her Christian faith for strength, reflecting on how even Jesus experienced moments of doubt and suffering. For Guthrie, Easter still holds meaning—a symbol of renewal, second chances, and hope for new beginnings, even in the darkest times.
As she continues to cope with her mother’s disappearance, Guthrie is also preparing to return to her role on the Today show after nearly two months away.
Meanwhile, authorities—including local law enforcement and the FBI—are still searching for answers. Nancy was last seen on January 31 after spending time with her daughter Annie and Annie’s husband, Tommaso Cioni. Despite ongoing efforts, the case remains unsolved, leaving Guthrie and her family holding on to hope.#newsafro_
