Hoda Kotb Reunites With ‘CBS Mornings’ Gayle King For Special Event
Viewers of the Today Show desperately miss Hoda Kotb. She left the show earlier this year to spend time her family and friends. She recently reunited with a long-time friend, CBS Mornings host Gayle King, for a very special reason. Keep reading to find out more about the eventful occasion.
Hoda Kotb & Gayle King Show Support For Good Morning America Anchor
Hoda Kotb and Gayle King are always there to support each other. Gayle made a surprise appearance on Hoda’s last day of the Today Show in January 2025. Jenna Hager Bush said that they had a Hoda lookalike contest in honor of the special day, and the winners were backstage.
Gayle King came out, poking fun at fans constantly confusing the two. She was later asked if she wanted to join the NBC show to replace Hoda. But Gayle has been with CBS since 2012 as host of the network’s morning show.
Hoda Kotb recently had a major career disappointment. She lost out on a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Talk Series Host. Drew Barrymore took home the award for her self-titled daytime talk show.
But the disappointing news didn’t stop her from celebrating a huge achievement by another morning talk show host. Hoda Kotb and Gayle King were among the attendees at a recent event to celebrate Good Morning America anchor Deborah Roberts’ new book.

Page Six shared that several morning hosts, past and present, descended on Michael’s restaurant in Manhattan, New York. Sisters: Loved and Treasured shares stories from dozens of prominent women, including actress Viola Davis, Jenna Bush Hager, and her sister, Barbara Bush.
News anchors across the networks came out to show support for the passion project. Hoda Kotb and Gayle King were in attendance, as well as ABC hosts Robin Roberts and David Muir.
“The Sisterhood journey is unfolding in real time… Thank you to everyone who is embracing this book. I’m eternally grateful and hopeful that it offers a light into the complex and life affirming world of sisters and sister friends,” Deborah Roberts said at the event.
The GMA host received more support on social media.
“Congratulations.!!! This book is long overdue and I can’t wait to get my hands on this read.”
- “@debrobertsabc congratulations on publishing this book. You and your sisters look lovely and it was so wonderful seeing your ABC colleagues celebrating this accomplishment with you and sisters.”
- “There are blood sisters and then there are “sisters from another mother.” Proud of you Sis and CONGRATULATIONS”
- “Love seeing your colleagues celebrating this huge accomplishment and special day with you, too! What blessings!”
- “It is so nice that they came to support you”
Celebrating their colleague was the perfect excuse for Hoda Kotb and Gayle King to hang out.
