Savannah Guthrie Calls 2012 Khloé Kardashian Question Her Biggest Today Show Regret

She describes producer pressure to ask a "dishy" paternity query she delayed to the final seconds.

Overview

  • On Monday's Today broadcast during a Fan Fest segment with Andy Cohen, Guthrie revisited a 2012 interview and identified the on-air moment as her top misstep.
  • She said she felt compelled by producers to raise rumors about Khloé Kardashian’s paternity and waited until a 10‑second countdown to ask it.
  • Guthrie recalled being "so embarrassed," while noting Kardashian handled it with poise and brushed it off as "nothing to it," even joking about not knowing "who my daddy is."
  • Guthrie previously recounted the episode during a SiriusXM Today Show Radio town hall with Cohen and Craig Melvin in February.
  • Reports highlight that the paternity speculation has been tabloid fodder for years, was referenced on a 2012 KUWTK episode, and has drawn denials from figures named, with no new evidence emerging.
