Hey there! Let’s talk about something truly inspiring. Savannah Guthrie, the beloved Today show co-host, is opening up about her journey to motherhood. Now in her 40s, Savannah reveals that having kids later in life has been one of the best decisions she’s ever made. With two adorable children under her wing, she’s sharing her story and how it all came together—despite the challenges along the way.

For years, Savannah dreamed of being a mom. But life had other plans. "We dated for so long that we thought maybe it was too late and we'd lost our chance," the 47-year-old candidly tells People, referring to her husband, Michael Feldman. It wasn’t easy, but sometimes the best things in life come to those who wait, right?

Savannah and Michael began dating back in 2009, and after years of love, they finally tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in 2014. That same year, they welcomed their first child, daughter Vale Guthrie Feldman. "When we found out we were pregnant, I don’t think there were two happier people on this planet," Savannah recalls with a smile. And it only got better from there.

    Looking back, Savannah—who is also the proud mom to her 2-year-old son, Charles Max Feldman—believes that having kids later in life has brought unexpected perks. "I definitely have a good head on my shoulders," she shares. "I’m able to prioritize, and I think there’s a luxury to feeling calm enough and not feeling the same pressures you do in your 20s and 30s, when you're really trying to make your career happen." Now, Savannah can fully embrace the joy of raising her children without the added stress of climbing the career ladder.

    As a former lawyer turned TV personality, Savannah knows what it means to juggle work and family life. But she wouldn’t trade it for anything. "Now, I can really take my time and enjoy our kids," she gushes. "We feel so lucky to have each other." There’s something magical about finding balance and cherishing every moment with the ones you love.

    Happiest Easter ❤️

    Savannah’s family may be her priority now, but did you know she and Michael almost didn’t get married? "We did break up on the day that we got engaged," Savannah revealed during a Today segment in October 2018. She joked about how she "broke up with him in the morning and got engaged in the afternoon" during a trip to Turks and Caicos. Talk about dramatic! But hey, sometimes love works in mysterious ways.
