On Monday, the radio correspondent announced to Hoda and Savannah Guthrie that she is pregnant once again.
“You’re in your pink and blue. You look like you’re at a Gender Reveal party,” Holly told the hosts as they sat at the desk.
“Gender Reveal,” Savannah laughed. “Two ladies! Cat’s out of the bag for us.”
However, Savannah and Hoda turned serious as Holly rubbed her stomach and said: “Cat’s out of the bag for a lot of us.”
“What?!” Savannah asked while Hoda’s mouth dropped and she sat in silence.
After a few seconds, Hoda asked: “Are you pregnant?”
The hosts then cheered and hugged Holly, as she revealed she does not know the baby’s sex yet.
“You know what I love? You can put 10 pounds on in 10 weeks here and everyone will act like they don’t notice,” Holly shared.
“They actually don’t notice because everyone is up and down. Congratulations!” Hoda, 59, said.
Holly shared the other Today hosts’ reactions to the post as well.
She captioned it: “New Today Show Radio correspondent, coming February 2024!”
NEWS SPREADS FAST
The other videos in the post featured the other Today hosts finding out about Holly’s pregnancy.
On the Listen Up! segment, Sheinelle Jones and Jenna Bush Hager found out last week.
“Well, more of the parenting podcast, I’ll be bringing these next few weeks,” Holly told the hosts as she rubbed her stomach.
Jenna, 41, and Sheinelle, 45, screeched and said: “What? You’re pregnant?”
“We just said you look beautiful! We had no idea,” Jenna asked.
“Well, sometimes you hide a maternity dress,” Holly said.
Holly then told Sheinelle and Jenna that she is due on Valentine’s Day.
“I love babies,” Sheinelle cried at the end.
The third video then featured Sheinelle and Craig Melvin.
“I heard something, but I didn’t want to ask… So, it’s true? Congratulations!” Craig said.
Holly then asked if being the parents of multiples was OK and Craig said it is different.
