It’s been more than a month since Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie, went missing from her Tucson home. Because of Savannah’s high profile, the case received national attention, but so far has not turned up answers for Savannah and her siblings about what happened to their mom.

Now, there is a report that due to the extensive coverage of the case and everyone seeing the 84-year-old’s home on TV and online, it has become a place where people not connected to Nancy or the case have been showing up.

Sources have told Naughty But Nice that Savannah is very upset that her mother’s home has become a spectacle for people who do not belong there, noting that the quiet neighborhood is now a gathering spot for influencers, amateur detectives, and true-crime podcast sleuths.

“Savannah is devastated,” a source close to the family said. “She’s praying for answers, and instead her mother’s home has become a circus.”

They added, “Right now that house feels like the scene of a crime, not a family home. The idea of tearing it down has come up simply because the memories there are becoming unbearable. All she wants is her mother found. Every online headline, every camera pointed at that house just makes the nightmare feel bigger.”

Nancy is believed to have been abducted from her home in the early morning hours of Feb. 1. She was reported missing after she failed to attend church.

The Guthrie family has offered a $1 million reward for information that leads to Nancy’s recovery. The FBI is offering a separate $200,000 reward for information that could lead to an arrest and conviction.
