New Report Reveals Why Hoda Kotb Is Leaving The ‘Today’ Show

Buy Me A Coffee

It looks like Hoda Kotb is making a grand exit from the Today show in early 2025, and the reason might not be as simple as wanting to snuggle with her kiddos. Nope! It turns out there might be some juicy gossip simmering behind the scenes!

Last week, Hoda dropped the bombshell that sheโ€™s leaving her beloved morning gig to spend more time with her adorable daughtersโ€”because apparently, being a mom isnโ€™t a full-time job in itself! But wait, there’s more! According to the ever-so-reliable gossip wizards over at Puck News, thereโ€™s a twist in this tale that even the best soap operas would envy.

The report suggests that Hodaโ€™s exit could have less to do with family bonding and more to do with something that could make anyone clutch their pearls: a pay cut! Yes, you heard that right! NBC, in all its infinite wisdom, apparently tapped Hoda on the shoulder and said, โ€œHey, how about you take a little less cash to keep our show afloat?โ€ I mean, who wouldnโ€™t want to sacrifice millions for the love of early morning television?

Hoda is reportedly raking in a whopping $20 million a year! Thatโ€™s enough to buy a small islandโ€”or at least a lifetime supply of avocado toast! But alas, the suits at NBC are waving the white flag, claiming that with the ratings dropping faster than a toddlerโ€™s ice cream cone, those mega contracts just canโ€™t fly anymore. They love Hoda, they really do! But when your show is competing with Good Morning America for who can be the least relevant, tough decisions must be made.

So, whether Hoda is setting sail for mom duty or just dodging the corporate guillotine, one thing’s for sure: the morning show will never be the same without her infectious giggle and that iconic cup of coffee. Cheers to you, Hoda! May your future be filled with fun, laughter, and maybe a few less meetings about pay cuts!
