A report published by the New York Post’s Page Six claimed that Savannah has been “getting emotional” between breaks while trying to remain composed on live television.

What Happened in the Nancy Guthrie Case?
Nancy Guthrie, 84, was reported missing in February 2026 after authorities said she disappeared from her home in Catalina Foothills near Tucson, Arizona. Investigators later said evidence at the residence suggested she may have been abducted.

Reports of Abrupt Exit From ‘Today’ Show Sparked Concern
Earlier this month, viewers grew concerned after Savannah abruptly left a live broadcast of the “Today” show midway through the program. Co-anchor Craig Melvin later assured viewers that she was okay and would return the next day.
