Donald Trump Addresses Savannah Guthrie's Family Nightmare From The Oval Office

The White House is among the growing number of people concerned about Savannah Guthrie's missing mom.

Donald Trump recently shared his thoughts on the devastating situation during a press conference in the Oval Office. His words come days after Nancy Guthrie's disappearance.

Savannah Guthrie's 84-year-old mother was last seen on Saturday, January 31, 2026. The missing person's case is being investigated as a crime, with authorities suspecting that she was either kidnapped or abducted from her home.

On Tuesday, February 3, Trump addressed Savannah's situation while speaking to reporters at the White House Oval Office. A clip of the conversation was shared on YouTube, capturing the moment a journalist asked if the President had been briefed on the missing person case.

"I think it's terrible," Trump replied. When the reporter asked if he would allow more federal agents to help with the search for Savannah's mom, he readily agreed, saying, "Sure, I would. I'm going to call her later on. I think it's a terrible thing."

"I always got along very good with Savannah. Very unusual situation, but we're going to find out," Trump added. His words follow the White House's reaction to Nancy's disappearance on Instagram. They shared a post imploring people to help find Savannah's mom.

In the White House's post, the public was urged to step forward and contact the police if they had any information about Savannah's missing mom. "Our prayers are with the Guthrie family as we hope for Nancy's safe return home," the message read.

The White House's words matched the plea Savannah dropped on Instagram, speaking on behalf of herself and the rest of the Guthrie family. The Blast reported that she emphasized their belief in God and the power of unity, noting the family was grateful for the public's support.

Savannah described her mom as "a woman of deep conviction, a good, and faithful servant," and implored the public to keep praying for her because the Guthrie family needed prayers now more than ever. "Bring her home," she concluded her impassioned message.

Savannah was absent from Monday's episode of the "Today" show, but she made her presence known through a statement read out by her co-anchors. The message matched the plea she shared on Instagram, in which the broadcast journalist thanked fans on behalf of the Guthrie family.

The media personality's gratitude extended to law enforcement officers, whom she thanked for their efforts to find Nancy. Additionally, Savannah implored anyone with information about her mother to come forward and share it with the Pima County Sheriff's office.

During a press conference, Sheriff Chris Nanos from the Pima County Sheriff's Department similarly implored the public for their cooperation in the ongoing case. He stressed that time was of the essence in finding Nancy, whose life could be in danger without her medication.

As police continue to investigate the disappearance of Savannah's mother, an alleged ransom note was delivered to TMZ. The Blast reported that the outlet revealed it had received a typical ransom note demanding a hefty payment for Nancy's release.

The note stressed that the sum must be sent to a specific Bitcoin address before a stated deadline. It also included threats of what would happen if the Guthrie family did not accept these terms. The media outlet confirmed that the payment account wasn't fake.

Meanwhile, the Pima County Sheriff's Department confirmed that they were aware of a possible ransom note or notes connected to Nancy's disappearance and were taking all the information they received seriously. However, they did not share whether these ransom notes were legit.

According to a source, NBC took the disappearance of Savannah's mother seriously and beefed up the broadcast journalist's security amid the police's investigations. The Blast shared that Savannah and her other co-anchors received more protection, courtesy of the network.

"This is not a routine. NBC security has been in active talks with law enforcement all day. This is being treated with extreme caution," one source claimed. Another noted that everyone was receiving maximum protection, given the severity of the case. "You don't assume anything — you prepare for everything," they stressed.

As for how Nancy's disappearance had affected her daughter's workplace, an insider alleged that the incident shook everyone. They added that Savannah was particularly "devastated" by the news, as investigations uncovered signs of forced entry at her mother's home alongside blood.
