Even consummate professionals Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie have their breaking points when it comes to reporting on the coronavirus outbreak daily.ET's Kevin Frazier spoke to the show co-anchors on Friday via video chat, and the women discussed an especially emotional moment on last Friday's show, when Kotb unexpectedly broke down in tears after interviewing New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees.
Brees donated $5 million to Louisiana coronavirus relief, and Kotb started crying as soon as the interview ended. Unable to speak, Guthrie — who had been filming the show from her home instead of at the New York City studio with Kotb — comforted her remotely.<p lang=«en» dir=«ltr» xml:lang=«en»>We love you, Hoda. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/rocZr8J4EE
