Savannah Guthrie has reportedly poured around $500,000 into a private search for her missing mother Nancy Guthrie, who vanished from her Tucson, Arizona home on 31 January, as the 84-year-old's case enters its fifth month without a suspect and remains under active investigation by authorities.
Nancy's disappearance has gripped audiences in the United States precisely because it collides two worlds that usually stay separate: a routine suburban life in Tucson and the high-profile career of her daughter, Today co-anchor Savannah, in New York. Investigators say Nancy was last seen at home on the evening of 31 January.
