Today With Jenna & Sheinelle ended its latest week of shows with a familiar face in Studio 1A.
Hoda Kotb stopped by the fourth hour of Today on Friday, May 29. “You know it’s a special day around here when Hoda’s in the house,” Sheinelle Jones exclaimed, while Jenna Bush Hager added, “We are so happy. Hoda is back to share a sweet story with us.”
