On her first day back, Guthrie donned a vibrant yellow dress and appeared cheerful as she joined Melvin at the desk.
This color holds special significance in her mother Nancy’s hometown of Tucson, Arizona, where residents have adopted yellow ribbons as a symbol of hope following her disappearance from her home on February 1.
The 54-year-old greeted viewers with, “Good morning, welcome to Today on this Monday morning.”
She added, “We are so glad you started your week with us, and it’s good to be home.”
“It’s good to have you back at home,” Melvin, 46, remarked as he reached out to touch her hand.
Guthrie responded with, “Well, ready or not, let’s do the news!”
Melvin then promptly transitioned into a news segment about the Iran War.
