Even though she's on a break from the Today show to bond with her newborn daughter, Hope Catherine, Hoda Kotb hasn't exactly been out of touch with her colleagues. The 54-year-old took a moment to share some precious moments with her fans, giving everyone a glimpse into her world off-screen. Imagine being away from work but still surrounded by your closest friends—well, that's exactly what Hoda's doing. She's cherishing every second with her NBC crew, and she wanted to make sure everyone got a taste of that joy.

On Friday, April 27, Hoda posted a series of photos on Instagram featuring some of the biggest names on the Today show, like the ever-charming Al Roker, the dynamic weather expert Dylan Dreyer, and even a surprise visit from the iconic Meredith Vieira. The photos are more than just snapshots; they're a celebration of the family-like bond that these coworkers share. “Our family of friends. Love our NBC posse,” Hoda captioned, and it’s clear that this sentiment runs deep.

Among the many familiar faces in those photos is Jenna Bush Hager, who had the honor of meeting Hoda’s new baby early on. Jenna, the daughter of a former president, captioned her own photo with heartfelt words: “I’m filled with indescribable JOY and yes, HOPE for this beautiful family. Happiest — and tear-filled for my Hoda!” The picture shows Hoda with her two daughters, including her firstborn, Haley Jo. It's clear that Hoda’s joy is contagious, and her friends are right there celebrating every step of her journey.

Behind the Scenes: Dylan Dreyer's Story

One of the most touching moments in the photos features Dylan Dreyer holding baby Hope. Now, Dylan has her own story to share. Recently, she opened up about her personal struggles with miscarriage during her second pregnancy with her husband, Brian Fichera. Imagine the strength it takes to walk into work with a smile on your face after going through something so deeply personal. “I’m devastated, and I have to go to work on the Today show and be happy and smiling and pretend like nothing’s wrong,” Dylan bravely shared during a candid moment. She recalled the exact moment she felt something was off, and Brian’s comforting words helped her through it. “It’s your body doing what it needs to do. YOU didn’t do anything wrong,” he reassured her. Brian’s support was a lifeline, and Dylan’s transparency about her experience is nothing short of inspiring.

Dylan, who is already a proud mom to her son Calvin, 2, spoke candidly about the challenges of secondary infertility. She often finds herself fielding questions about when she'll be expecting again, which can be tough to handle. “One of the most difficult things about suffering from secondary infertility is constantly being asked when you’re going to be expecting again,” she admitted. People always tell her, “Calvin needs a sister or brother,” and while she knows their intentions are good, it can still be hard to hear. Dylan’s response? A simple yet powerful, “Yep, I know. Someday.” She reminds herself to put a smile on her face and move forward, knowing that her journey is uniquely hers.

Through it all, one thing is clear: these women, and their NBC family, have built an incredible support system. They’re there for each other in both the happiest and toughest of times, and that’s what makes their bond so special. We’re just so glad to see them all come together with smiles, ready to take on whatever life throws their way.
