Hoda Kotb wrote a letter for her successor and new TODAY show co-anchor, Craig Melvin. She hid the letter in a "secret" place only Savannah Guthrie knew about.

Craig Melvin's debut as co-anchor of Today proved to be an emotional one. On Monday, January 13, the 45-year-old broadcast journalist — who began his first day in his new gig — received a video message and a handwritten letter from his predecessor, Hoda Kotb, whose last day was Friday, January 10.
