Hoda Kotb announces Sept. 3 return to 'Today'

Hoda Kotb visits Build to discuss her new book "You Are My Happy" at Build Studio on March 12, 2019, in New York City. She will return to "Today" Sept. 3 following a maternity leave.

Speculation has been rampant for months about the return — or lack thereof — of Hoda Kotb to NBC’s “Today.”

The journalist adopted her second daughter, Hope, in April.

She announced on the show this morning that she will indeed be back to Rockefeller Center — on Sept. 3.

During the call to Studio 1A, Kotb said, “There hasn’t been a second that I haven’t loved (with the kids). I loved it all. But the other big realization I had on this maternity leave is how much I love you guys.”

She also took to Instagram with the news.

There’s snark, too, of course … it is the internet.

After all this time I thought #HodaKotb had quit #TodayShow. She had a really lonnnggggg baby leave.
