'Today' host Hoda Kotb opened up about her decision to move herself and her two daughters, Haley and Hope, to a new part of New York
Hoda Kotb is preparing for an upcoming move, and her daughters are the reason behind the big decision.
While discussing the move with her podcast guest, author Arthur Brooks, Kotb reminisced about the “many times” she’s changed locations throughout her life. “I remember once my parents moved us to Nigeria. I was in fourth grade, I was horrified,” she shared. “We get to this place, the language was different, everybody seemed different and it was hard. I moved again in sixth grade.”
Noting that the moving process will “be more bad than good at the beginning,” Brooks, 59, shared some tips on how to make the transition smoother for Kotb and her kids. “When you move to a new place, pretend you’ve lived there for 10 years already,” he said, suggesting Kotb throw gatherings with friends and family like she would at her current home. “It’s a complete game-changer because you speed up the clock.
Thursday’s episode of Hoda and Jenna marked Kotb’s return to the series after taking a brief break from the show on Wednesday. Although she had appeared on the first two hours of Today, Willie Geist stepped in to cohost alongside Bush Hager, 42.
