Hoda Kotb, co-anchor of “Today,” returned to the NBC morning show on Monday after a brief break, revealing that her 3-year-old daughter had recently been hospitalized.
Hope, Kotb’s youngest kid, was in the critical care unit “for a few days and in the hospital for a little more than a week” after becoming ill, she said on the radio.
“Today,” co-anchor Craig Melvin told viewers last week that Kotb was dealing with “a family health problem” amid growing anxiety for the AWOL newscaster.
