Today host Savannah Guthrie ended her monthslong absence from the show as outside attendees cheered her return on Monday.

Guthrie hasn’t appeared on Today since Jan. 30, two days before her mother, Nancy Guthrie, disappeared on Feb. 1. Authorities believe Guthrie’s mother had been kidnapped or taken against her will, becoming a national story as law enforcement searched for her.
