Savannah Guthrie returned to social media this week with a heartfelt message as the search for her missing mother, 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, continues in Rio Rico, Arizona. Grateful for the outpouring of public support, Savannah urged everyone to remain vigilant and report any information that might help authorities. “Investigators are working tirelessly, and every tip matters,” she wrote. “We are hopeful that Mom will be found safe and returned to us soon.”
Nancy Guthrie has been missing since January 31, 2026, and authorities have been actively following multiple leads.
