Former Today co-hosts Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford have teamed up again after six years apart. They had worked together on the fourth hour of the morning talk show until Kathie Lee’s exit. So, what will they be doing now? Keep reading for more details.

Hoda Kotb & Kathie Lee Gifford Team Up Again

In 2019, after twelve years together, Kathie Lee Gifford announced her Today Show departure. It was strange for viewers to think of her co-host, Hoda Kotb, working with someone else. They had a great bond and camaraderie, which flowed really well. Yet, in 2019, Kathie Lee exited, and Jenna Bush Hager entered. Hoda and Jenna excelled together, and fans loved watching their close friendship every morning. However, at the end of 2024, Hoda shared she was departing come the beginning of 2025k, which was a huge blow to fans and colleagues. Fortunately, everyone is still very close to Hoda, but now, she is reuniting with Kathie Lee.

Kathie Lee had a QVC event in Santa Monica, California, and Hoda stopped by to support her. When asked why she was there, Hoda noted that anywhere Kathie Lee goes, people flock to her. Therefore, it only made sense for her to lend her support. Of course, Kathie Lee brought the jokes, referring to Hoda as Kelly Ripa. The two ladies proceeded to smile and hold hands as they walked around. It was clear they still had the same chemistry as always.

Upon seeing Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford together, fans were so happy to see the former Today co-hosts reunited. However, some were concerned for Kathie Lee. They did not believe that she looked well or healthy despite Hoda radiating. Kathie Lee had fractured her pelvis a few years back, and even though she recovered, it could explain her off appearance. Regardless, they were there for a good cause, and that is all that matters in the long run.

The Girls Are Together

Seeing Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb back together was a huge thrill for followers. They first watched them nearly twenty years ago, but Kathie Lee has been a presence in morning television for decades. She was the iconic hostess next to Regis Philbin on Live with Regis and Kathie Lee. When she left the morning show, Kelly Ripa came in to replace her and has been there ever since. Once the clip of Kathie Lee and Hoda surfaced, fans  immediately chimed in with their excitement:

  • Love you two so much!!! ❤️
  • Oh,Kathie Lee I miss you so much. I remember when you fused at everyone & taught us how to properly spell your name! ❤️
  • Previous!! Sisterhood picks up right where it has left off. Miles may change but hearts are eternal
  • You two are so adorable!
  • Kathi Lee looking so frail

Hopefully, this is not the last time fans see Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb together, as their union is dearly missed.
