The Reason Hoda Kotb Chose to Wear “M” Necklace During Today Show Exit Announcement
She expressed, “I believe we have a limited amount of time. Therefore, with that in mind, this is the most challenging thing in the world.”
The host also shared that reaching 60 seemed like the perfect moment to make a change and “explore something new,” realizing this after marking her birthday.
“I recall being outside, looking at all these wonderful people with their beautiful signs,” reminisced Hoda, “thinking, ‘This is the peak of happiness for me.’ I felt it couldn’t get any better, and that’s when I decided it was time for me to move on.”
While the experienced reporter won’t bid farewell until early next year, some individuals, like Today meteorologist Dylan Dreyer, are already contemplating who could step into her role.
