It's April 6th. I'm Cory with the story, and this is Entertainment and Celebrity News today, your AI-powered Entertainment Report. Savannah Guthrie made her triumphant return to the today's show Anchor Desk on Monday, April 6th, 2026, after more than two months away. Her mom Nancy went missing back on January 31st, and the search is still ongoing. Guthrie jumped right back in, co-anchoring with Craig Melvin, like she never left. Carson daily led the cheers on Instagram, calling her the show's North Star, and praising her grace, bravery, and skill. He said words can't describe how great it feels to have her back, while the team keeps praying for her family. Hoda Koda, who filled in during her absence, posted a sweet throwback pic of Savannah with her kids, and sent love. Jenna Bush Hager and Chanel Jones called it a homecoming on the third hour, hugging her tight and feeling that muscle memory from years together. On air, Savannah kicked things off by saying it's good to be home, ready or not for the news.

Melvin echoed the joy, later posting that her happiness is their protest too, amid the tough times. Her colleagues see her heart and professionalism shining through, proving strength in the storm as the family holds out hope for answers.
