“We miss you…everything seems so secret, I hope everything is ok,” wrote another.
“Where is Hoda Kotb, why is she out for almost 2 weeks? Can someone please tell me if everything is ok? Or vacation? asked this viewer.

“Hoda, I don’t know what’s going on and it’s none of my business (or anyone else’s!) but I wanted you to know how much you were missed and loved. I pray it’s for a good reason, and if not, I pray you (and the girls) are okay. Stay strong Hoda… you are stronger than you think!” wished one fan.
She last appeared on “Today with Hoda & Jenna” on February 20, President’s Dayth; however, this was a pre-recorded episode due to the holiday.
So, technically, he was last physically on the show on February 17thth.
Hoda posted on Instagram on Monday, February 27thth. She shared a photo that read, “Choose hope.”
He has a daughter named Hopena. Hoda simply prescribed the comment red heart with emoji.

Many have said the “Today” show isn’t the same without her, and it’s hard to watch the AM news without Hoda.
