When Savannah Guthrie’s chair sat empty on Today, fans feared an illness or quiet contract drama. Instead, the truth was far more unsettling: her 84-year-old mother, Nancy,
had disappeared from her Arizona home, prompting an urgent search and a rare, raw statement from the usually composed anchor.
Speaking through the show and on Instagram, Savannah thanked viewers for their prayers and made one plea that cut through the screen—help bring her mom home.
Authorities in Pima County describe Nancy as a “vulnerable adult” in poor physical health, last seen near her
Tucson neighborhood. Though she has no cognitive issues, her limited mobility raises the stakes of every passing hour. Sheriff Chris Nanos admitted that what
deputies found at the scene set this case apart, intensifying public concern. As the nation watches, strangers flood Savannah’s comments with prayers,
clinging with her to the same fragile, stubborn hope: that Nancy is found safe and soon.
