According to Us Weekly, he had a family crisis to deal with. The beloved pup he shares with his wife, Deborah Roberts, Pepper, underwent emergency surgery. Al shared the details via his Instagram, along with a slideshow of the couple holding sweet Pepper at the vet:

“Our little girl, Pepper had emergency surgery but is on the mend. She’s getting great care and is coming home tomorrow. Woof. You can sleep on our bed as much as you want.”

It was evident by the photos that Deborah Roberts and Al Roker adore Pepper and she is their little furry baby. They would go to the ends of the Earth for her so it makes sense that Al would want to be at home with her, especially after all of the stress that must’ve occurred with the surgery.

Deborah also shared her own post about Pepper having their heart for twelve years now. More so, she and Al were grateful for any and all prayers coming their way for their furbaby. During the pandemic, Pepper served as a guest weather dog alongside Al and it cheered up the studio.

After followers saw why Al Roker had been absent, they sent nothing but love to him, Deborah Roberts, and Pepper:

  • Hugs, Treats and Prayers for Pepper…sleeping in your bed is a promise you can’t take back, buddy…but it’s the right thing to do.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
