AceShowbiz - Hoda Kotb's exit from NBC's "Today" Show has sent shockwaves through the television industry. Following Kotb's 17-year tenure, Carson Daly has hinted at a potential departure as well. Daly expressed a desire to reduce his workload, citing his young children and the precious time he has with them.

"I cannot wait to get off television! I still see Jay Leno on TV and I'm like, 'Why?' No, I am… I am looking to cut back. I lost my dad when I was 5, so my time with my kids is the most precious. That's what I think about Hoda, I'm happy for her, she's gonna get more time. Walking your kids to school is way more important," he said.

However, he also acknowledged the undeniable chemistry on the Today Show team, which makes it difficult to leave.

Adding to the speculation, Savannah Guthrie made cryptic remarks at leaving the show as well. She stated that she and Kotb are in the "same phase of life," alluding to the possibility of her own exit. "Hoda and I have had this discussion for years and years," Guthrie said before praising Kotb's courage and confidence in stepping into a new future.

Sources within NBC have hinted that Savannah Guthrie may have been planning her own exit in 2025 before Kotb's departure announcement. However, insiders emphasize that they hope to retain Guthrie indefinitely, valuing her as the "beating heart" of the Today Show.

Hoda Kotb will remain within the NBC family after leaving "Today", though her next role has not been disclosed. She has expressed a desire to spend more time with her daughters, Haley and Hope.

As Hoda Kotb prepares to bid farewell to "Today", rumors of Carson Daly and Savannah Guthrie's possible departures have sparked speculation about the show's future. While Hoda leaves behind a legacy of warmth and friendship, the remaining team members face the challenge of maintaining the unique chemistry that has made "Today" such a beloved morning program.
