BOSSES at NBC are worried Savannah Guthrie won’t be returning to her post at Today following her mother’s kidnapping ordeal.
Savanna — who has been the co-host of Today since 2012 — is, according to sources, unlikely to return to her post.
“There’s no way Savannah’s coming back,” one veteran executive told the Status newsletter. “I can’t imagine she would even want to.
“If you could pick one person across the span of morning TV that a show would not want to lose, it would be Savannah.
“Savannah was always the glue on that show, and without that, this whole paradigm of our morning anchor team as a family, that connective tissue has just been ripped out.”
Meanwhile, Hoda Kotb has been filling in for Guthrie — but she won’t do it forever.
“She left for a reason, which was because they weren’t paying her as much,” said the source.
Nancy Guthrie, 84,was last seen on Jan. 31 after she was dropped off at her Tucson home by her daughter Annie and her son-in-law Tommaso Cioni following a daily dinner.
