THE TODAY Show host, Al Roker’s wife, Deborah Roberts, has shared a cryptic post to her Instagram about renewed hope.
Fans are worried for the meteorologist’s health as he has been missing from the morning show for quite some time.
On Wednesday, Deborah shared a photo of a skyline with bridges and buildings in the background.
Right under the water, she put the words: “New day. Renewed hope for good things.”
It is not clear where she was at or if she was with Al, or even talking about him.
The TODAY meteorologist has been absent from the morning show for over a week and fans have become worried.
One concerned fan tweeted at the host: “@alroker are you on vacation again?? Missing you on the today show.
“I only watch it because of you! Come baaaack!”
Another wrote to the 68-year-old amid his show absence: “@alroker Hi Al. Hope all is well. Miss you!”
A third sent their worries to the show, begging in a tweet to Today: “#whereisal? Where is Al?”

IS AL OKAY?
Aside from Deborah’s cryptic post, she did give an update earlier this week as to where Al might be.
He hasn’t been very active on social media amid his show absence, only posting a few times and never about his whereabouts.
Unable to get answers straight from the source, fans have flocked to the weather anchor’s wife’s Instagram, as well.
Deborah posted late last week about a new GMA segment she was working on for the show’s next book club pick.

Though the photos didn’t feature her husband, followers still made sure to ask about him in the comments.
What concerned social media user asked: “Is Al Roker ill? Hasn’t been on Instagram or on the Today show. Worried.”
Seeing that many fans had the same concerns, Deborah decided to respond to explain what’s been going on with Al amid his show absence.
“Ahh thanks for this,” Deborah wrote on Friday. “He’s a bit under the weather, but ok.”
After learning that Al hasn’t been feeling well, fans wished him “a speedy recovery.”
BREATHE IT IN
Al returned to the morning show on Monday, but only in a pre-recorded segment.
The clip featured him and fellow host Hoda Kotb trying a breathing meditation class.
The TODAY stars visited New York City’s Frequency Breathwork to explore different ways to find inner peace and relaxation.
“People are looking for a different way to work now, maybe not the same eight hours a day, five days a week,” Al explained. “Maybe we are looking for a new way to find peace.”
Although Al admitted that he usually ends up falling asleep whenever he has tried guided meditation, this session proved different.
“I feel grounded, centered and extremely grateful,” he shared at the end of the class.
Hoda agreed, telling her co-hosts after their pre-recorded segment aired that it was a “very emotional and weird” experience.
“You feel just very calm like you’ve had a massage but better,” she added. “When you figure out how to do it on your own, it’s free – it’s called air, check it out!”
While Al appeared on the recorded segment, he was still absent from the live show on Monday.
