Savannah Guthrie has reassured her followers that she is doing well after her recent vocal cord surgery.

The “Today” show anchor shared an encouraging update on Instagram this Monday.

In the photo she posted, Guthrie is seen holding a whiteboard with the message, “All good! Thanks for prayers and love,” indicating that speaking is not yet an option for her.

She added a playful note in the caption, writing, “see you soon! 💛”

Her audience quickly filled the comments with heartfelt messages, expressing how much they miss her presence on their screens.

“So happy to hear all went well ! Sending healing ❤️‍🩹 vibes,” one wrote.

“Miss seeing you with Craig and Sheinelle. Love you 3. Heal fast and come back,” another added.

On Dec. 19, the journalist announced that she’d be taking some time away from from the talk show to undergo the vocal cord surgery in the new year.

Guthrie, 54, explained on air that she had nodules and a polyp that needed removal, which is why viewers may have noticed that her voice had been “very scratchy and started to crack a little bit.”

She also said she would need to be on vocal rest during the recovery period but insisted the procedure is “not a big, big deal.”

She joked that it sounded like she had “the world’s longest head cold,” but now, she’s “really excited” to finally have some answers and improve her voice.

“This has been going on for years, honestly,” she shared.

Since she wouldn’t be able to speak for a while, Guthrie joked, “Christmas coming early for my family!”

The lawyer shares two children, daughter Vale, 11, and son Charley, 8 with husband, Michael Feldman.

Co-host Sheinelle Jones noted that she had undergone the same surgery and gifted Guthrie the whiteboard, wrapped in a red bow, that she used to “speak” as she recovered.

“The silver lining is you have permission to be still. The house gets quiet, the kids are gonna want to help you out,” Jones said.

“A lot of the greats have done it, maybe you’ll come out singing like, I don’t know, Celine Dion.”
