\n

The Today Show is facing criticism, especially from former Fox News host\u00a0Megyn Kelly, after posting a video of host Sheinelle Jones sharing a tender moment with the mother of singer Adrienne Bailon-Houghton.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The host turned to her blog<\/a> and condemned the caption, writing, “She is suffering quite clearly, and this is what her colleagues do? ‘Nothing beats a mom hug.’ I’m sorry, network television is a vicious, thoughtless, heartless, nasty place, and you should not be misled into thinking you are watching loving, wonderful people.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“It is not what they would have you believe, and I just think that it was a despicable oversight or an intentional move, she continued.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“I don’t know. At some point, someone is going to have to take responsibility for it and say, ‘I did a thoughtless thing, and I’m deeply sorry,'” Kelly finished.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In the February 12 episode of Today with Jenna and Sheinelle, Jones was seen being comforted by Adrienne’s mom following the death of her husband Uche Ojeh in May 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, when the NBC show posted the clip on Instagram with the caption, “Nothing beats a mom hug. Sheinelle shares that Adrienne Bailon-Houghton’s mom comforted her in the days after Uche’s passing. They reunited in Studio 1A today,” it sparked backlash from some fans due to the ongoing search for Savannah’s missing 84-year-old mother.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Nancy, who has been missing since February 1, is believed to have been abducted from her Arizona home whilst she slept.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Reacting to the “mom hug” post, one person commented, “Weird post when you’re on the Today Show’s set and the host of that show’s mom is missing,” reports the\u00a0Irish Star<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Another added, “Y’all, your coworker and friend, Savannah, her mom got abducted in the middle of the night and they are still searching from her. Have some sensitivity! Horrible caption!”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A third chimed in, “This is crazy, considering Nancy Guthrie is still missing,” whilst a fourth remarked, “Kinda tasteless. I think this is a story that could have been paused at this time.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A fifth urged, “You should take this down. Very insensitive post given the circumstances of your coworker’s horrific circumstances at the moment.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And someone else claimed, “Very inappropriate timing considering what Savannah is dealing with.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, not everyone saw it that way. One supporter insisted the post wasn’t connected to Nancy, emphasizing it celebrated two special people reuniting, “This was such a beautiful full circle moment!”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
