The two women were victorious over their male teammates, Al Roker (Craig Melvin) in a friendly match.
Following Jones’ win, Jones followed up with a tweet that included a trophy emoji.
Savannah and Hoda have been rumored to be in a feud for several weeks, after Central Recorder revealed tension between them.
Central Recorder learned from a source that the cohosts had been secretly revealed by Central Recorder in June. “can’t stand each other.”
According to the insider: “Savannah is the boss. After Matt Lauer was ousted, Savannah grabbed power, and she really wanted Willy Geist in Hoda’s role, but his ratings were just not up to par for the network.”
“Hoda out maneuvered Savannah and got the spot.”
Kotb has just spoken Good Housekeeping that she is in constant fear of being fired because of her co-star.
She acknowledged that she sometimes struggles to maintain her composure after a commercial break.
Guthrie claimed she had her in hysterics.
Kotb stated: “I live in fear of being fired in a moment because she’s like ‘Hoda, zip it’ and they [the producers] are like ‘Three, two one’, and she’s calm!”
She feels Guthrie is her best friend. “secretly, nasty funny”.
Guthrie made a rude gesture to her hairdresser and make-up artists on Monday while filming the live show.
Behind the scenes at the New York studios of the national morning show is always bustling – but according to an insider at the taping, Savannah’s assistants didn’t even get as much as a thank you.
Fans have even gone as far as to threaten to boycott watching the morning show and jump ship to its competitor, Good Morning America after noticing tension between the two women.
After Kotb and Guthrie had teamed up to create a segment on cooking that seemed uncomfortable, this was the result.
