Nancy Guthrie Update: Savannah Issues ‘Desperate’ Plea on 6-Month Anniversary of Mom’s Abduction

Today co-host Savannah Guthrie just issued a “desperate” plea on the six-month anniversary of her mother Nancy Guthrie‘s abduction in Tucson, Arizona.

On Saturday, August 1, Savannah took to Instagram with a photo of her mom, 84, and a new message.

“This is our beautiful Mom,” the NBC journalist, 54, began her update. “Six months ago, someone took her out of her bed in the dead of night. We have lived every moment, every breath, and every heartbeat in agony and despair ever since.”

Savannah continued, “Every day, we wake up and try to be strong and go on — because that’s what our joyful and resilient Mom taught us to do. But make no mistake — our hearts are in ruins. Cam and Kristine, Annie and Tommy, Mike and me — we spend every waking moment thinking of her, longing for her, looking for her. There is a hole inside us that can never be filled. There is an ache that cannot be softened. And there is a determination in us that cannot be quenched — to find out what happened to her, so that we can give her the dignity of a proper goodbye — a celebration of her remarkable life that she so deserves.”

Additionally, Savannah said that she and her family are “desperate” and “begging for help.” She insisted that someone knows or suspects something about what happened to Nancy and encouraged them to speak out.

“Perhaps they are afraid to come forward. Perhaps they are conflicted. Perhaps they are angry or upset for being in this situation,” she speculated. “There is a way out — to tell what you know. You can do so anonymously. The reward is available. There is a way to end this situation and do the right thing.”

To conclude her message, Savannah reminded her mother’s captor(s) and the public alike that they are “real people, facing real grief, doing the best we can.”

“We need your prayers, we need your kindness. We need the good to be stronger than the evil,” she wrote. “If you are following this story for entertainment or for profit, you are not on her side — you are part of the harm perpetrated against her.”

Savannah then vowed, “We will never stop looking for answers — and we will never stop looking for the light. We will always be hoping and praying and believing in the best of our world — in spite of circumstance. This is what our faith makes possible. Please. Bring her home. 💛.”

Nancy was last seen at her Catalina Foothills home on January 31. Although Savannah has offered a $1 million reward on top of other reward money, no suspect has been named in the investigation.
