Jenna Bush Hager Compares Hoda Kotb's 'Today' Exit to Being Dumped


Jenna Bush Hager revealed that Hoda Kotb's upcoming 'Today' show exit feels a lot like getting dumped by a romantic partner

When Kotb announced her Today exit, she cited turning 60 and wanting to spend more time with her daughters — Haley, 7, and Hope — as her reasons for stepping down. “This is how she starts off our staff meeting: ‘One time Hoda left a party with my purse,’” Kotb, 60, recalled during the Wednesday, October 9, episode of Today. Kotb is excited to see who follows in her Hoda & Jenna footsteps, telling Bush Hager on the show’s September 26 episode that it’s “your turn” to step in the spotlight.
