LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ‘Today’ host Hoda Kotb recently posted a snap of her rarely-seen daughters, Haley, 6, and Hope, 4 as they spent a day on the beach with their grandmother Sameha. The former NBC ‘Dateline’ correspondent decided to adopt her two daughters and has even talked about how her life changed since then.

Earlier in June, ‘Today’ host Hoda Kotb glammed in a hot pink outfit ahead of Kim Petras’ live concert. The pop star joined the morning show hosts to discuss the debut of her latest album while also celebrating Pride weekend in New York City. Hoda Kotb donned a form-fitting pink jumpsuit that accentuated her figure. Her signature brown curls cascaded down as she opted for a natural look with minimal makeup and jewelry. The length of the jumpsuit was such that it elegantly trailed along the ground.

Hoda Kotb's daughters Haley and Hope’s beach day

On Sunday, July 9, ‘Today’ host Hoda Kotb shared a family photo on her Instagram account showing her mother, Sameha, cuddling with her granddaughters, Haley and Hope. Sameha enjoyed the summer sun in a comfortable, purple tank top while rolling up her pants to feel the refreshing ocean water on her feet and ankles. Meanwhile Haley and Hope, dressed in matching floral-print bathing suits and adorable pink sunhats, had a playful time near the shoreline. All three paused their activities to capture a joyful moment in a photo.

Hoda Kotb, in her caption, referred to the picture as her favorite summer snapshot, featuring her daughters and her mother, “My fav pix of summer— my girls and my mom”. A week earlier, the American journalist was seen posing with her girls during their Fourth of July celebrations.

On the Fourth of July, Kotb shared a picture of Haley and Hope on their bikes, dressed in red tie-dye shirts with American flag heart designs. The bikes were decorated with red, white, and blue pom-poms. Kotb, sporting an updo, was standing off to the side and smiling proudly. She wore a navy striped shirt and accessorized with red, white, and blue beads. In another photo, Kotb lovingly snuggled with her daughters, grinning widely towards the camera. She wore a headband with "YAY" and "USA" written on top. The girls held onto their mother, displaying their adoration and affection.
