Even though she was at the top of her career game, there was something missing in Hoda’s personal life. That part was filled in February of 2017, when she adopted a baby girl named Haley Joy. Then, in April of 2019, Hoda added another girl into the mix with the adoption of Hope.

Today, on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Hoda Kotb discusses her journey to motherhood and her recent engagement.

Becoming A Mother 

Before she was a mother, Hoda always received the same question.

“My whole life people had asked me the question, ‘Do you have children?’ and I’ve always said, ‘Oh, I have two nieces.”

But one day, shortly after adopting Haley Joy, a stranger asked this routine question. But Hoda’s response shook her to the core.

“I said, ‘I have a daughter.’ I kept repeating it. ‘I have a daughter.’ And it was so profound to me in that moment.”

As Hoda described the emotional interaction, host Kelly is seen wiping away her tears. What a life-changing realization!

And Kelly Clarkson kept tearing up as Hoda Kotb continued with her story, explaining why she decided to give Haley Joy a sister by adopting Baby Hope.

It is truly amazing to watch someone share these precious memories and cherish the simple moments.
