Savannah currently co-hosts “Today” alongside Craig Melvin, Al Roker, Carson Daly and Jenna Bush Hager. She has been on NBC News desk since 2007 as a legal analyst, and moved up to co-host “Today” in 2012.
Savannah has spoken out on “Today” about how her mother has impacted her life.
“When I was in my 30s, I really wished to be married and to be a mom, and things just did not happen that fast for me,” she said on the show. “And my mom’s confidence that I would be a mom — even as the years ticked by and ticked by and ticked by — meant so much to me. She said, ‘Of course you’ll be a mom, and you’re going to be a wonderful mom.’ And for her to have that confidence and faith was so meaningful to me. It got me through some really hard times.”
