Savannah Guthrie Sets April 6 Return to Today as Search for Her Mother Continues

Her on-air return signals a push to keep the case in public view during an unresolved FBI–sheriff probe.

Overview

  • Guthrie’s comeback date, revealed Friday on Today, is set for Monday, April 6, marking her first in-studio show since before her mother was reported missing.
  • In her first extended interview, she said the back doors were propped open, there was blood on the front step, and the Ring doorbell was removed, which led the family to fear a targeted abduction.
  • Investigators have released doorbell footage of a masked man at the front door and continue to seek tips, with a $1 million family reward and a $100,000 FBI reward still in place.
  • Former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer told Newsweek the new details suggest an entry at the back and removal through the front, an interpretation that remains analysis rather than confirmed fact.
  • Coverage has ranged from NBC and the Los Angeles Times focusing on Guthrie’s return plan to the Daily Mail and Hindustan Times amplifying insider tensions and online speculation, even as local officials say no Guthrie family members are suspects.
