Life Behind the Fame

Savannah Guthrie Makes Rare Comment About ‘Horrible’ Divorce

by Ruth A

Published July 2, 2025

Savannah Guthrie, longtime Today show co-anchor, recently opened up about her past marriage to BBC news producer Mark Orchard, marking a rare moment of vulnerability from the usually private journalist. In an interview shared this week, Guthrie addressed how the experience shaped her emotionally and professionally. The couple divorced in 2009 after four years of marriage.

Without diving into the personal specifics of the split, Guthrie acknowledged that the relationship’s end taught her resilience. “There’s a reason why some things don’t work out,” she said, noting that lessons from that time helped guide her toward healthier relationships later on. Her candor reflects a larger trend of public figures embracing transparency around personal setbacks.
