Hoda Kotb says her 5-year-old daughter, Hope, is finding steady footing more than a year after a troubling medical crisis.

Speaking to People in an interview published online Wednesday, the Today co-host shared an update on the girls condition.

Were in a place where Hope is thriving, she said. She is improving, were watching her, and I think that as time goes on, well have a better handle on it, but were already seeing great differences.

In early 2023, Kotb took two weeks off from her show amid Hopes health crisis. The journalist has never publicly disclosed her daughters diagnosis, but has said that medical professionals were constantly checking on the girl for a time.

Kotb told People that her children were a major factor in her decision to step down from her Today role in 2025, following nearly two decades with the NBC show. The mother of two announced the move in September, about a month after turning 60.
