The co-anchors didn’t mention her absence, but it can be assumed she was catching up after a tiring fortnight of traveling the world, working grueling 14-hour days to attend the death and funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. to cover .
She worked so hard that at one point she fell asleep in front of the camera, although luckily the moment happened during a break from live coverage.
Langdon was last on air Wednesday when she anchored the Today show solo from London while her co-host Stefanovic was on a flight back to Australia.

In the photo, she was taken back to Sydney Airport on Thursday.
The breakfast TV presenter had been on site in England on September 12, and Stefanovic joined her a day later.
Nine appears to have staggered the presenters’ flights back to Australia, so major news programs, such as the Today show, were not without both main hosts.
