Savannah Guthrie’s “Bring her home” plea after Nancy’s abduction

Four months after Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance outside Tucson, Savannah Guthrie shared a new Instagram message urging “Bring her home,” while police believe Nancy, 84, was abducted early on February 1. The search continues as authorities stress the case requi

Savannah Guthrie wrote “Bring her home” with a yellow heart on Sunday, June 7—another public plea for her mom as the search stretches into its fourth month.

In her Instagram Stories, the Today show cohost shared a religious painting showing Christ’s ascension, with the words “Oh my, my soul, it cries out, soul, it cries out” overlaid on the image. She added the message for Nancy Guthrie’s return.

Nancy Guthrie, 84, has not been found. Police believe she was abducted from her home just outside of Tucson, Arizona, in the early hours of February 1.

In an update on June 1, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos described why the investigation has taken time. “These cases are difficult,” he said. He added that it’s “not just a detective who goes out there. talks to somebody. and we can make an arrest. ” explaining that many cases require work involving other people.

Nanos said the length of the effort is also tied to lab work. “What really makes it prolonged is we do rely on labs,” he said, stressing that investigators “don’t want to jeopardize not just the integrity of this case, but the integrity of DNA as a supplement to law enforcement work.”

Savannah’s latest message comes after repeated appeals for help from the public. In a Mother’s Day tribute posted in May. she addressed Nancy directly—calling her “Mother. daughter. sister. Nonie”—and wrote. “We miss you with every breath. We will never stop looking for you. We will never be at peace until we find you.”.

She also renewed her call for information, urging people to reach out. “We need help. Someone knows something that can make the difference. Call 1800CALLFBI. You can be anonymous and the reward remains available. Please keep praying. Bring her home,” she added.

Earlier, in a March interview on Today, Savannah described the shock of the first moment she realized something was wrong. “[My sister, Annie, called],” Savannah said. “She said. ‘She’s gone. ’” adding that her sister “was in a panic” and that she was “in a panic” too. “I’m like, ‘Call 911.’ She’s like. ‘I did. We called them. They’re here.’ … It was just chaos and disbelief.”.

She said that from the earliest conversations with authorities, her sister Annie and Annie’s husband were clear about what Nancy could and could not do. They told officials, “This isn’t a case that you are used to where someone wanders off. She can’t wander off.”

Savannah has also adjusted her public schedule during the search. She briefly took a break from Today beginning in February, returning to cohosting duties on April 6. She also stepped away from fronting NBC’s coverage of the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy.

The timeline has now moved past February’s disappearance and into June. while police continue to believe Nancy Guthrie was taken. Each new post from Savannah brings the same urgent focus—getting her mom back—at a time when investigators say the work must be handled carefully and the results depend on labs.

For families waiting at the edge of each update, those careful steps can feel unbearable. For Savannah, the plea hasn’t changed: “Bring her home.”
