Hoda Kotb started as a local news anchor and reporter in Louisiana, then joining NBC News’ ‘Dateline NBC’ in 1998 as a correspondent.

Hoda also became the co-anchor of the Today show’s first two hours with Savannah Guthrie in 2018, after Matt Lauer was fired for sexual harassment. Hoda has an Emmy for Today and has written four books. She’s the mother of two girls: Hayley Joy Kotb, whom she adopted in 2017, and Hope Catherine Kotb, whom she adopted in 2019. She was previously married to Burzis Kanga, but they divorced in 2009. She previously dated Joel Schiffman.

Now, in 2024, at 60 years old, Hoda announced she would be leaving the Today show. She shared during the show on Thursday, September 26, “A new decade of my life lies ahead, and now, my daughters and my mom need and deserve a bigger slice of my time pie.” She disclosed that she would be working through the beginning of 2025.

Hoda Kotb debuted a much darker hair color on ‘The Today Show’ in December 2021, after a mishap with keratin left her hair a bright orange hue.

While the hair is a darker color here, the style has mostly remained the same. Before admitting to considering a change, Hoda explained why her style has remained the same for so long. “I think it was because people were saying at home that when I was talking, you can’t see me because of hair in the front like that. So they said, ‘Can you switch it?’ So I tried to switch the part, and then I was off balance,” she said.
