Hoda, 58, shared the clip of her and Savannah, 51, talking about the beginning of their day on her recent Instagram Stories.
“Something happened for the very first time this morning,” Hoda told the correspondent, who held a mic in her face for commentary.
“Savannah and I rolled in at the exact same time, rolled in hot.
“I go what?! and Savannah was like ‘hi.'”
Hoda then proceeded to ask Savannah why she “rolled in hot,” gesturing with her head for Savannah to give her explanation though she seemingly already knew.
Savannah divulged that she and Hoda arrived at work simultaneously because she was staying in a hotel for the night with her family since they’re amid moving.
The TV personality didn’t want to wake her two kids, Vale, 7, and Charles, five, so she got up really early so she could leave without disturbing them.
Savannah admitted that her early departure actually resulted in her getting to the Today studios “kind of on time.”
Hoda revealed that she was shocked to see Savannah coming to work from the opposite side of the street at the same time as her.
She also said that she “couldn’t believe” that Savannah actually got there at the same time she did, being that she typically never does.
Savannah noted that when she first got there she was unsure of what to do with all of the time she had before today’s show began.
She added that she made use of her time by chatting it up with Hoda.
Hoda cosigned that the time she and Savannah were able to “hang out” before they went live for Thursday’s episode was the “best time.”
FRIEND OR FOE?
In the clip, the co-anchors seemed the best of friends; however, things aren’t always as they seem.
Earlier this year, there is a rumored feud between the two morning TV stars despite their appeared closeness.
Rumors of a feud began swirling during the summer of 2022.
Reports began to surface that there was tension between the two Today hosts.
A source told The U.S. Sun that Hoda and Savannah “can’t stand each other.”
This report also discussed the July 2022 Today segment in which Hoda poked fun at Savannah for allegedly liking to sleep nude.
Throughout the months, more show moments deepened theories of a rift, including when Hoda interrupted Savannah in October 2022.
And when the two had an awkward exchange while wrapping gifts in December 2022.
An insider also talked to The U.S. Sun about the work stress the two women have been under, stating that they “were handed a mess when Matt Lauer was fired.”
The source continued: “They had to navigate an incomprehensible situation, not only for themselves, but for the audience, and most importantly for the Today show staff, who were left reeling. And they had to do it on live television.”
Hoda and Savannah denied their rumored beef while talking with ET’s Brice Sander on the BravoCon red carpet in October 2022.
According to ET, she said: “We don’t [have a feud]. It’s the silliest, but, you know, what can you do?”
Hoda added: “You know, you get a kick out of it. I feel like sometimes some things just sell magazines, and you’re buying it! What are you thinking?!”
ALL GOOD
The duo had nothing but kind words to say about each other when celebrating their fifth anniversary as co-anchors at Today on January 3, 2023.
Hoda spoke about the happy times she and Guthrie have had off-air.
She said: “Can I just say that the stuff that we show on TV is fun, but the stuff I love the most is the stuff that’s not on TV.”
Hoda continued: “I’m just thinking about our morning — just this morning — and there are so many (moments) just like that, that happen before the cameras all go on, and we really get to be us.”
Savannah called the pair “lucky” before referring to Kotb as her “soul sister.”
She continued: “To get to do this together — you held my hand five years ago. We said, ‘Let’s do this.’ And this has been the joy of a lifetime.
