Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager have a plan in place for the 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.“Last year, Hoda and I came up with this secret symbol, which was Hoda brushing her teeth with a finger,” Bush Hager, 43, said on the Wednesday episode of “Today With Hoda & Jenna.” Kotb, 60, added that the symbol was an “indicator that I was thinking of Jenna.”This Thanksgiving will mark the last holiday that the fourth hour “Today” co-hosts celebrate on air as Kotb is set to exit the show in early 2025.
