The Hardships of Being Away from Home
During a candid joint interview, Hoda and Savannah opened up about the challenges of being away from their children while in South Korea. Savannah admitted, “I mean, it’s an adjustment. There’s no question. When you’re a mom, your heart is always where your kids are.” Hoda echoed this sentiment, sharing a touching story about Savannah's daughter. “She just FaceTimed her and it was the cutest thing. She was playing Bananagrams, spelling words. It was such a cool little moment that will sustain us. You get one of those and you go, ‘OK.’”
We couldn't be happier for Hoda and Savannah being back in NYC. It's a reminder of the importance of family and the sacrifices we make to do what we love. But at the end of the day, nothing beats the warmth of home and the people we love.
