Hoda Kotb Officially Announces Her Upcoming Wedding in 2025

No, Hoda Kotb Hasn’t Announced a 2025 Wedding—or a New Fiancé

New York — Posts claiming that Hoda Kotb has set a 2025 wedding and revealed details about a new fiancé are not backed by credible reporting. Reliable outlets that closely cover Kotb note that she split from her former fiancé Joel Schiffman in January 2022 and, while she’s spoken openly about dating again, she has not announced an engagement or a wedding date.

In a December 2024 on-air discussion about “micro-weddings,” Kotb simply imagined what a future ceremony might look like “when that day comes,” without naming a partner or setting a timeline. That segment appears to be the seed for recent speculation. (People.com)

Some viral social posts circulating in 2025 assert an imminent wedding and describe a “surprising” unknown fiancé; these come from low-credibility pages and do not cite primary sources. Treat them as rumor unless corroborated by Kotb herself or reputable outlets. (Facebook)

Kotb has, however, shared more about life changes since her career shift this year—focusing on family, co-parenting with Schiffman, and being open to love without rushing. None of that includes a confirmed engagement. (People.com, Good Housekeeping)

Quietly, there’s a better lesson here than gossip: beginnings don’t need a spotlight to be real. Wisdom traditions often counsel letting what’s tender grow in peace—what’s meant will unfold in God’s time. For fans, the kind thing is simple: celebrate what’s confirmed, and leave the rest to ripen. (People.com)
