"Today" co-anchor Savannah Guthrie issued a tearful public plea Wednesday evening for the safe return of her missing 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, who disappeared from her Tucson-area home in Arizona.
In an emotional Instagram video posted with her brother and sister, Savannah addressed reports of ransom notes circulating in the media. "We are ready to talk," she said. "However, we live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated. We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her."
The post was captioned simply: "Bring her home."

The family emphasized that Nancy Guthrie has fragile health and relies on medication she no longer has access to, which is critical for her survival. "We want to hear from you and we are ready to listen," Savannah added, urging direct contact.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has classified the disappearance as a crime, stating authorities found concerning evidence at Nancy's home—including signs she did not leave willingly—making it a "crime scene."
Investigators are actively reviewing reported ransom notes sent to media outlets, though no suspect or person of interest has been identified. The FBI is assisting, and officials continue to prioritize tips while believing Nancy remains alive and in the area.
On Wednesday evening, President Trump posted on Truth Social that he had spoken with Savannah Guthrie and was directing all federal law enforcement resources to support the family and local authorities immediately.
"We are deploying all resources to get her mother home safely," he wrote.Nancy Guthrie was last seen at her home Saturday night, January 31, 2026, and reported missing Sunday after missing church.
Authorities urge anyone with information to contact the Pima County Sheriff's Department.
