When Hoda Kotb replaced Matt Lauer on "The Today Show," following shocking sexual assault allegations against him, she made history. According to The Washington Post, her appointment to the slot, alongside co-host Savannah Guthrie, marked the first time "The Today Show" was hosted by two women. Kotb quickly became a beloved part of the show.

However, within the last week, Kotb has not been appearing alongside Guthrie as normal. "The Today Show" is not the only segment she has been missing from either. Kotb has not been featured on her "Today With Hoda and Jenna" show, while Kotb's hit podcast, "Making Space," has also failed to release any new content this week, at the time of writing. 

Guthrie confirmed that she simply had the morning off from work one day, but she has not expanded on where Kotb is or whether she's well. Other anchors have been filling in, but there remains a layer of mystery surrounding Kotb's whereabouts. Though she hasn't been on TV, Kotb has been posting on Instagram, which has only added to the confusion.
