Savannah Guthrie bravely returned to the red carpet for the first time since the shocking kidnapping of her mother Nancy Guthrie in February.
The Today star, 54, attended the US Open Exhibition Match event in New York on Tuesday, where she watched retired tennis player Roger Federer play against Andy Roddick and Andre Agassi.
The beloved TV presenter was all smiles on the red carpet as he looked radiant in a colorful floral dress.
She wore gold jewelry, including a heart pendant, and wore clear heels for the occasion.
Guthrie was joined for the outing by her husband Michael Feldman.
It comes six months after her 84-year-old mother Nancy was kidnapped from her home in Tucson, Arizona.

The search for Nancy was led by Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos, who faced criticism for alleged missteps during the investigation.
The Sheriff’s Office has faced widespread criticism for its handling of the case, including claims from FBI Director Kash Patel that Nanos delayed the agency’s involvement in the search.
More recently, detectives have been accused of paying “little attention” to dried blood found on the porch of Guthrie’s home in the immediate aftermath of the kidnapping, reportedly believing it was unrelated to the kidnapping.
Nanos told the Wall Street Journal that his department is “working hard every day with all of our partners,” including “Corporate America,” which has “offered some assistance to some of this country’s brightest minds.”
“This case is not cold,” he added.
On the six-month anniversary of her mother’s disappearance, Guthrie issued an emotional plea to her mother’s kidnappers.
She vowed to “never stop looking for answers” and again urged anyone with information about Nancy’s disappearance to come forward.
‘Six months ago, someone got her out of bed in the middle of the night. Since then, we have lived every moment, every breath and every heartbeat in pain and despair,” the Today host wrote on Instagram.

Savannah said she and her siblings are trying to stay strong because that’s what Nancy would have wanted, but admitted their “hearts are in ruins.”
“Every waking moment we think about her, long for her, search for her. There is a hole in us that can never be filled. There is a pain that cannot be eased,” she wrote.
“And there is a determination within us that cannot be quenched, to find out what happened to her so that we can give her the dignity of a proper farewell, a celebration of her remarkable life that she so deserves.”
‘There is a way out, by telling what you know. You can do this anonymously. The reward is available. There is a way to end this situation and do the right thing,” she added.
Savannah said the family would never stop searching for Nancy and reiterated her faith as they continued to move through the ordeal.
“We will never stop looking for answers, and we will never stop looking for the light,” she wrote. “We will always hope and pray and believe in the best of our world, despite the circumstances.”
‘Please. Take her home.’
The family is offering a reward of up to $1 million for information leading to Nancy’s recovery.
According to local police and the FBI, there are no suspects.
