Jenna Bush Hager Embarrassed as Her Celebrity Crush Is Revealed on Happiness Hour

Jenna Bush Hager’s celebrity crush has finally been revealed—and it’s not who you might expect. During a candid conversation on the Happiness Hour segment of Today, Hoda Kotb, Jenna’s former co-host, spilled the beans about Jenna’s unexpected crush, leaving the audience (and Jenna herself) a little embarrassed.

 

The Big Reveal

The surprising revelation came when Hoda, Savannah Guthrie, and Jenna were reminiscing about their strong bond and friendship. As the conversation turned to the topic of celebrity crushes, Hoda shared a fun tidbit from Jenna’s birthday celebration, where Jenna confessed that her celebrity crush was none other than Savannah Guthrie.

Jenna, clearly caught off guard by Hoda’s announcement, laughed and asked, “Should I be embarrassed?” She explained that many people were likely expecting her to name someone like George Clooney, but instead, she had a much more personal and unexpected choice.

A Special Bond Between Jenna and Savannah

As Hoda praised Jenna and Savannah’s friendship, Jenna opened up about how their connection developed “unexpectedly.” She reflected on her time at Today, sharing that she hadn’t anticipated forming such close friendships at work, especially with someone like Savannah, whom she had once felt distant from.

“When you don’t have expectations about something, like you go to college and you expect a bunch of friends… you expect it,” Jenna said. “But unexpected friendship is a real gift.”

Jenna went on to explain that, as a journalist’s daughter, she was initially cautious about working with journalists, including Savannah. However, her time at Today led to an incredibly rewarding and genuine friendship. “My expectation was to build a career and start a life in New York. And I’d just married Henry and I didn’t think my friends were gonna be within the walls of my workplace. Unexpected friendships are a wild gift,” Jenna shared.

 

Fans Celebrate the Trio’s Connection

Fans were quick to weigh in on the conversation, praising the trio’s camaraderie and their ability to share such genuine, heartfelt moments with their audience. One fan wrote, “Unexpected friends are simply the best gift,” while another added, “3 of my favs! I love you ladies. Such inspiration!”

It’s clear that the connection between Jenna, Savannah, and Hoda is special, and their heartfelt bond continues to resonate with fans, who appreciate seeing the trio’s authentic friendship play out on television.

Searching for the Perfect Co-Host

While Jenna may have been embarrassed by the celebrity crush revelation, she also took the time to discuss the ongoing search for a co-host to replace Hoda after her departure earlier this year. Jenna admitted that finding the right person for the role has been challenging, as they’re still “searching” for Hoda’s permanent replacement.

Jenna emphasized the importance of finding the right fit for the show, saying, “We definitely want somebody permanent at some point just because that’s our show, and I think the Today Show is such a family.” She added that the search continues, and while there are no developments yet, she’s hopeful they’ll find the perfect fit soon.
