It looks like the exes will be spending Christmas together as Hoda has hung a stocking for him on her mantelpiece inside her new family home in the suburbs, just months after she moved out of New York City.
She captioned a snap on Instagram from inside her house: “It’s all happening! Merry Everything!!”
Six festive stockings have been put out in total – one for Hoda and her daughters, one for Joel, whose reads ‘Dad’, while the remaining two are for her sister, Hala, and mom, who is nicknamed Tata.
Hoda’s followers loved the decorative interior, with one writing: “So happy for you and your family! Merry Christmas!!”
Another said: “Home sweet home… dreams come true.”
A third wrote: “Wishing a Merry Christmas to you and those beautiful girls of yours! Wishing you peace this season and a house full of love.”
While a Hoda, 60, and Joel, 65, reunion would no doubt go down a treat, the duo could just be doing what’s right for their girls this Christmas to make it as special as possible.
We recently revealed how Hoda was ready to start dating again.
An insider said: “She wants a boyfriend, she wants to be able to date, she wants to have that in her life.”
Last week, Hoda gave fans insight into her daughters’ Christmas wish lists.

Appearing on Late Night with Seth Meyers, she said: “They want makeup, but what is that about? That is not happening. What are we talking about? All these little kids, like young kids, 7, 8, 9, are into skincare and stuff. But we don’t have that in my house. That’s a big no.
“They asked Santa for magic sets. They like magic sets. They like American Girl dolls… They’re into anything with bubbles.”
Next month, Hoda will say goodbye to The Today Show after six years as co-anchor alongside Savannah Guthrie.
Craig Melvin will step into her formidable shoes as she says goodbye to focus on spending more time with her girls.
Speaking on her Making Space podcast, Hoda explained: “It’s funny. When I was mentioning here that I was going to leave the Today show, one of our producers came upstairs in the makeup room, and she said, ‘I want to say something to you.’ She goes, ‘My mother walking me to school every day was the best memory I’ve ever had.’
“And all I want to do is walk my kids to school. And it’s the simplest thing, with a cup of coffee, walking your kids to school. But all the little things, you get to see growth.”

The single mom had a perspective shift last year when Hope was hospitalized in a “scary crisis” that left her in intensive care for close to a week.
A source recently told us: “When Hope was sick and hospitalized, everything changed for her with her views on work.”
Hoda was in her fifties when she became a mom with her ex-fiancé, Joel Schiffman, 65, and she’s well aware of how quickly the years are passing.
“Obviously I had my kiddos late in life,” she said. “I was thinking that they deserve a bigger piece of my time pie that I have. I we only have a finite amount of time.”
