Guthrie's mother, Nancy, has been missing since Feb 1. Guthrie is believed to have been taken against her will. Guthrie sat down with NBC News colleague Hoda Kotb for her first interview since her mother's disappearance.
During the emotional conversation, Guthrie said her family still isn’t sure if the 84-year-old grandmother was targeted because of the "Today" co-anchor’s fame but the notion that she "brought this to her bedside" is "too much to bear."

"I’d just say I’m so sorry, Mommy. I’m so sorry. I’m sorry to my sister and my brother and my kids and my nephew and Tommy, my brother-in-law. I’m just — I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. If it is me, I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry," Guthrie said.
Guthrie has been away from the show since her mother went missing but returned to the Rockefeller Center studio to visit colleagues on March 5. Kotb has been anchoring alongside Craig Melvin while Guthrie is away from the show.
Guthrie told Kotb in a preview that aired Wednesday that her family was in "agony" over her mother.
