Savannah Guthrie Welcomed Back to 'Today' After 2-Week Absence: 'We Missed You'

Savannah Guthrie is back on the Today show.

The veteran anchor returned to the news desk alongside Craig Melvin after a two-week hiatus on September 8.

"Look who’s back, Savannah Guthrie. We missed you!” her co-host declared as he welcomed her back to the early morning show.

During her time away, Guthrie was spotted enjoying the last bits of her summer with her husband, Michael Feldman.

She applauded in the stands of the U.S. Open in New York City on August 25 with her spouse as they appeared to enjoy a date night free of their children, Vale, 12, and Charley, 9.

On Tuesday's show, Guthrie said she was ready for the kids to head back to the classroom and start a new season after celebrating the end of summer.

"It’s back-to-school week for everybody,” she gushed. “I’m bringing you a shiny new apple at 7:30.”

Guthrie has taken time away from her regular post at the news desk on multiple occasions this year amid the disappearance of her mom, Nancy Guthrie.

In late July and early August, she stepped away to film her new game show based on The New York Times' beloved Worldle mini-game.

The dedicated word game enthusiast was announced as the host of Jimmy Fallon's latest show in May, after several years in development

"I just want to say a quick thank you to NBC and to Jimmy and his production company and The New York Times and the studio and Universal because when everything happened with me and my family, they just stopped everything and said, 'We'll wait for you,'" Savannah gushed at the time.

"And Hollywood is a really tough business, and I didn't expect that, and I just want to say thank you. It means so much to me," she added.

Savannah also appeared on an episode of Jimmy's Password game show which aired during her most recent hiatus as excitement mounts for her own hosting gig.

She was joined by host Keke Palmer to help another contestant win an $18,000 prize.

"It was fun. We had a little game show summer,” she shared amid filming, according to People.

Earlier this year, Savannah was forced to take a step back from her job after her mother, Nancy, mysteriously disappeared from her Tucson, Ariz., home.

Police are still investigating the idea that the 84-year-old was forcibly taken in the early morning hours of February 1.

In the wake of her disappearance, Savannah stepped away from the show for several months, returning in April with a sentimental message for worried fans.

"I'm happy to be back," she said of her return in June. "It's like the two hours of my day — it's not that I'm not thinking about it, because I am — but it's something to do. It brings me a lot of joy to be with everybody. But no, it's not easy."
