Savannah Guthrie returned to the Today show on April 6, marking her first appearance since her mother, Nancy Guthrie, went missing from her home in Arizona on January 31, 2026. Although Savannah did not directly address her mother's case during the broadcast, she wore a bright yellow dress, which has become a symbol of hope in the community's search for Nancy. Supporters have placed yellow flowers and ribbons outside Nancy's residence to show solidarity. Former co-host Hoda Kotb mentioned that this tribute originated from viewer suggestions, while a neighbor highlighted the historical significance of yellow ribbons, which gained prominence during the Iran Hostage Crisis. Savannah expressed gratitude for the support she has received, stating, “You guys have been so beautiful. I’ve received so many letters, so much kindness to me and my whole family.” The family is offering a reward of up to $1 million for any useful information related to Nancy's disappearance.
