Her warm personality and genuine spirit have won over fans from all around the world who are curious about her personal life.
Current news, political analysis, and celebrity interviews are all provided by the presenter. Guthrie occasionally discusses intimate details of her relationships with her kids and Michael Feldman, a communications executive, and former Democratic political aide. Here is a summary of all you need to know about the personal lives of the co-hosts.
The Marriage of Savannah Guthrie and Her First Husband
Most people are aware that Guthrie is happily married to Feldman, but many don’t know that he is her second husband. Her first husband was Mark Orchard, a former BBC journalist.
The former couple first connected in 2005 while covering the Michael Jackson molestation trial. The American journalist Anne Elise Kornblut, winner of the Pulitzer Prize at the time, was her first spouse.
Rumor has it that Guthrie stepped in between the two and completely turned Orchard’s life upside down. In December 2005, they got married.
The couple’s marriage, however, was short-lived, and they divorced in 2009. She told The Hollywood Reporter, according to Good Housekeeping, that things changed after she joined NBC as a White House reporter in December 2008.
She told The Hollywood Reporter, “I was doing my best in my personal life, and my professional life was going great. Guthrie did not want alimony or financial support in her divorce suit, only that the court strike her first husband’s last name. It is unclear why Guthrie and Orchard split up because they kept it a secret.
The television presenter reportedly broke down in tears when asked about her divorce from her first husband but would not divulge any information, according to the Huffington Post.
Fortunately for Guthrie, despite the difficult divorce, she found her happily ever after with Feldman. The television journalist first met her spouse in 2008.
She had already split up with her first husband at that point. Guthrie and a mutual acquaintance attended Feldman’s 40th birthday celebration together, and the following spring they began dating and fell in love. In an interview with Reveal magazine, published by Drew and Jonathan Scott, she explained how she came to adore Feldman.
One of the qualities I liked about Mike is that he is flexible. “Wow, here’s a smart city kid who can accomplish stuff,” I thought. Guthrie thought back. She continued by saying that she hoped her husband could fix cars like her father used to.
In 2013, Feldman proposed to her when they were on holiday in Turks & Caicos. Guthrie didn’t want to be married and was thinking about seeking a divorce. She quickly responded “yes” when Feldman knelt to ask. In 2014, the couple exchanged vows in Tucson, Arizona, the bride’s hometown. Now happily married with two kids, the couple.
