Hoda Kotb has returned to the Today show after two weeks, with the journalist revealing that she was absent from her anchoring duties because her three-year-old daughter Hope was in the hospital.
Viewers began to question Kotb’s whereabouts after she was noticeably absent from the show since 17 February. Amid concern for the news anchor, Kotb’s colleagues Craig Melvin and Sheinelle Jones said during a 1 March broadcast that she was dealing with “a family health matter”.
