The search to locate Savannah Guthrie‘s missing mother, Nancy, continues. After seven weeks of investigating Nancy’s sudden disappearance from her Arizona home in February 2026, Savannah, known for her longstanding role on the morning TV show “TODAY,” has released another statement alongside her family.
Savannah Guthrie Releases A New Statement As Search For Her Missing Mother Enters Its Seventh Week
Savannah, 54, huddled around her siblings, Annie and Camron Guthrie, in a March 21 TV special aired on KVOA News titled “Bring Her Home: The Disappearance of Nancy Guthrie.”
“We are deeply grateful for the outpouring from neighbors, friends and the people of Tucson. We are all family now,” Savannah told the cameras.
As she has said before, Savannah told watchers that she thinks the Arizona community members could offer more help and support in the investigation than they may realize.
“We continue to believe it is Tucsonans, and the greater southern Arizona community, that hold the key to finding resolution in this case,” she said.
Savannah Guthrie Urges Arizona Community Members To Continue Searching For Nancy
Savannah explained that Nancy’s neighbors and other members of the Arizona community might be privy to important information.
“Someone knows something. It’s possible a member of this community has information that they do not even realize is significant,” she said.
The beloved TV personality went on to urge people to scrub their memories, “especially around the key timelines of January 31 and the early hours of February 1,” for details that may have been overlooked.
“We desperately ask this community for renewed attention to our mom’s case — please consult camera footage, journal notes, text messages, observations or conversations that in retrospect may hold significance. No detail is too small. It may be the key,” she said.
In late February 2026, the FBI had received over 750 tips related to Nancy’s disappearance, according to Us Weekly.
What Happened To Savannah’s Mom, Nancy Guthrie?
Savannah and her family’s latest statement comes nearly two months after their elderly mother, Nancy, was reported missing.
According to the BBC, Nancy was last seen in the late hours of January 31, 2026. At 1:47 AM, her doorbell camera was disconnected and removed.
Nancy’s closest friends grew concerned on February 1 and later called 911.
Authorities released doorbell footage of a masked individual appearing to tamper with Nancy’s doorbell camera the night she went missing.
The suspect was reported to be a male around 5’10” who was wearing a 25-liter Ozark Trail Hiker Pack backpack.
Ransom letters have also surfaced during the investigation; however, they have not yielded any leads.
Sheriff Chris Nanos has opened up about the challenges his team has faced during the investigation and admitted that locating Nancy could take longer than he had believed.
“Maybe it’s an hour from now,” he said, per The Blast. “Maybe it’s weeks or months or years from now. But we won’t quit. We’re going to find Nancy. We’re going to find this guy.”
Sheriff’s Office Is Not Holding Media Availability As Search For Missing Nancy Guthrie Approaches Two Months
Nanos and the rest of the Pima County Sheriff’s Office are not currently speaking with the media about the search for Nancy, according to CNN.
“This remains an active investigation and investigators are focusing (on) evidence analysis including DNA and digital. We will not get into specifics,” Nanos said.
The Phoenix FBI division also declined to speak with the media; however, a spokesperson assured the public that they were continuing to search for Nancy.
To help with the investigation, a 20-24-person task force has been formed, combining staff from the Sheriff’s office and the FBI.
Community Members Speak Out
The search for Nancy has been difficult for many, including Arizona residents Sandy Long and Sonja Gilgenbach.
Long told CNN that Nancy is “so badly missed in the neighborhood,” while Gilgenbach said she wants to ensure people are still looking for Nancy.
“Now the days are getting more and more, so people have a tendency to go on with their lives and kind of forget,” Gilgenbach added.
Long remained positive, though, saying, “I think this is an incident where Tucson’s not going to forget. I think that this has been an important family in Tucson. And I don’t think they’re ever going to forget.”
