Hoda Kotb was missing from the “Today” show for the second time since returning from her daughter Hope’s health scare.
Savannah Guthrie assured viewers that her co-anchor is just feeling “a bit under the weather.”
She noted that it was “good to have Craig [Melvin]” filling in.
Kotb’s absence comes shortly after she made headlines for being off for one week to enjoy her children’s spring break.
Prior to Haley and Hope’s school vacation, the journalist missed two weeks’ worth of the “Today” show starting February 17 amid a “family health matter.”
While the Daytime Emmy winner’s colleagues did not speak to the nature of her emergency, Kotb filled in fans when she returned on March 6.

“My youngest [daughter], Hope, was in the ICU for a few days and in the hospital for more than a week,” she explained through tears. “I’m so grateful she’s home.”
The former “Dateline” correspondent noted at the time that she and ex-fiancé Joel Schiffman were keeping a “close” eye on their little one.
“I am just so happy,” Kotb gushed at the time, expressing her gratitude for doctors, nurses, family members and friends who supported her little one.
Later that same week, Guthrie gushed to Page Six about Kotb’s “strength” during Hope’s ordeal.
“She was there every single day and every single night,” the 51-year-old recalled. “She never left her daughter’s side.”
Guthrie added that the “Making Space” podcast host was ready to “get back to life.”
Kotb adopted Hope in 2019, two years after she and Schiffman, 65, welcomed Haley to their family.
The former couple called it quits in 2022 after eight years together.
