Hoda Kotb returned to ‘Today,’ says 3-year-old daughter was in ICU

NEW YORK — “Today” anchor Hoda Kotb returned to the NBC morning show Monday after a two-week absence, sharing that her 3-year-old daughter was home following a recent hospitalization.

Kotb’s colleagues previously explained she was dealing with a family health matter but didn’t get into specifics.

“My youngest, Hope, was in the ICU for a few days and in the hospital for a little more than a week,” Kotb said on Monday’s show. “I’m so grateful she’s home. She is back home. I was waiting for that day to come. We are watching her closely. I’m just so happy.”
