Everyone else looks beautiful and happy!” It’s clear that this visit wasn’t just special for Hoda and Kathie Lee—it brought joy to their fans as well.

Keeping the Friendship Alive

It’s always great to see close friends making time for each other, especially when life gets busy. Kathie Lee, who left the Today show on April 5 after an incredible 11 years, made sure to visit Hoda and her family. In a December 12 episode of Today, Kathie Lee revealed that Hoda had known about her decision to step away for a long time. “Hoda’s known it for a long, long time,” Kathie Lee shared. With new projects bubbling up, including movies and music, Kathie Lee felt it was the right time to move on. “And I need the time for them to do them properly,” she explained, adding that she felt “relieved” once she shared the news with everyone.
