Savannah Guthrie Pleads for Information on Missing Mother
Savannah Guthrie's Heartfelt Plea
In a recent appeal, Savannah Guthrie has once again called on anyone who might have details regarding her mother Nancy's disappearance to step forward and 'do the right thing.' During an upcoming segment with her colleague Hoda Kotb on the 'Today' show, Guthrie opens up about the profound distress her family has faced since her 84-year-old mother was reportedly taken from her Tucson residence nearly two months ago. 'Someone needs to do the right thing. We are in agony. We are in agony,' Guthrie expressed in a preview aired on Wednesday. 'It is unbearable.'
Reflecting on her mother's situation, she shared, 'To think of what she went through haunts me. Every night, I wake up in the dark, imagining her fear, and it is unimaginable. But I cannot ignore those thoughts. I will not hide my face. She needs to come home now.'
Kotb mentioned that the full interview, which will be broadcast in two parts on Thursday and Friday, delves into various facets of Guthrie's journey. 'She discusses many topics,' Kotb noted. 'She talks about the investigation, her faith, and how she is coping. In the next segment, she shares how God is supporting her.'
During Wednesday's show, co-host Carson Daly acknowledged the emotional strain on Guthrie, remarking on her resilience throughout this challenging time. 'It’s been gut-wrenching to watch her in a tortured limbo state,' Daly commented. 'That’s exactly where it is,' Kotb agreed.
Nancy Guthrie was reported missing on February 1, following a family dinner the night before. Authorities suspect she was forcibly taken from her home. Surveillance footage captured a masked, armed individual approaching her door on the morning of her disappearance, and blood found outside the residence has been confirmed to belong to her.
In late February, the family announced a $1 million reward for any information that could assist in locating or recovering Nancy Guthrie. At that time, Savannah expressed that the family was still hopeful for a 'miracle,' while also recognizing the possibility that her mother may have already 'gone home to the Lord that she loves.' 'If this is what is to be… we will all accept it,' she stated. 'But we need to know where she is. We need her to come home.'
