Kotb, 57, then admitted that her own two daughters Hope, 2, andHaley, 4, have done the same.
“My girls do it when they’re in the tub,” Kotb added. “One sits at one end and one sits at the other and they hold hands, and they go ‘Hoda and Jenna.’ That’s what they do back and forth.”
“When they do that does that make you slightly worried?” Bush Hager, who is also mom to sonHenry “Hal” Harold, 2, asked her co-host.
Kotb replied, “I don’t know what to do. I just try to ignore it. You know if you ignore things, they go away. If you pay attention, your kids will do it forever and ever and ever.”
During the episode ofToday with Hoda & Jenna, Kotb invited her girls to come on camera to say hello.
“I brought my daughters, you want to come say hi?” she asked the toddlers as someone behind the camera ushered them over to their mom.
“I got two little ones. I just want to say, these two girls are gonna fall in love with the city just as I have over the years. So thank y’all for welcoming them,” Kotb said while holding one daughter in each arm.
“It really is awesome to bring your kids here. They’re overwhelmed. This is such an incredible place and an incredible city,” she added. “It’s really cool.”
