President Donald Trump is weighing in on the high-profile disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie.
“I think it’s terrible,” Trump, 79, told reporters inside the White House Oval Office on Tuesday, February 3.
“I’m gonna call her later on,” the president added of Savannah, 54. “I think it’s a terrible thing. I always got along very good with Savannah. Very unusual situation, but we’re gonna find out…”

Melvin read out a statement from Savannah, which said, “On behalf of our family, I want to thank everyone for the thoughts, prayers and messages of support. Right now, our focus remains on the safe return of our dear mom. We thank law enforcement for their hard work on this case and encourage anyone with information to contact the Pima County Sheriff’s Department at 520-351-4900.”
Savannah shared an emotional Instagram post late Monday night, urging followers to pray for Nancy.
She wrote, “We believe in prayer. We believe in voices raised in unison, in love, in hope. We believe in goodness. We believe in humanity. Above all, we believe in Him. Thank you for lifting your prayers with ours for our beloved mom, our dearest Nancy, a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant. Raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment.”
“Bring her home,” Savannah added.
