Hey there! Let's dive into some exciting news about one of America's favorite TV personalities, Hoda Kotb. According to recent reports, Hoda is so smitten with motherhood that she's already considering adopting another baby to give her daughter, Haley Joy Kotb, a little sibling. Can you believe it? Life is truly full of surprises! A source close to Hoda revealed to Radar Online, "Hoda is working with the same licensed adoption agency she used last time. With Haley turning one soon, Hoda hopes to bring home a new baby shortly after that milestone." How heartwarming is that?
At 53 years old, Hoda adopted Haley in early February as a single mom, but she's not going it alone. Her longtime boyfriend, Joel Schiffman, has stepped up to help her raise Haley and be the father figure the little one deserves. "Haley is the light of both their lives, and Hoda would love for her to have a sibling," said the source. It's no secret that while Hoda excels as a journalist, motherhood seems to be her true calling. Check out the video below to see some of the cutest moments between Hoda and Haley!
After bringing Haley home earlier this year, Hoda opened up about her journey to motherhood. Battling breast cancer back in 2007 made it impossible for her to conceive naturally, but that didn't stop her dreams of becoming a mom. "One of the things I’ve always wanted in life was to be a mom," she shared candidly. "Sometimes life doesn’t work out the way we plan, so you say, 'Well, I wasn’t meant to have that.' But it was really hard to come to terms with." Fast forward to today, and Hoda is living her best life as a mom, proving that dreams can indeed come true, even if the path isn’t always straightforward.

Hoda never wanted to pressure Joel into anything, so she was genuinely surprised when he suggested that she and Haley move in with him.

This potential marriage would be Hoda's second, as she was previously married to University of New Orleans tennis coach Burzis Kanga from 2005 to 2007. We’re rooting for you, Hoda!
