Hoda Kotb<\/strong><\/a> is not ruling out walking down the aisle again in the future \u2014 but the confession came out during an awkward segment on Today<\/em>. The NBC host recalled a detail about her wedding to ex-husband Burzis Kanga<\/strong> after Jenna Bush Hager<\/strong><\/a> made a strange comment.<\/p>\n

The comment was made during a conversation on Today With Hoda & Jenna<\/em> on Wednesday, December 11, where they talked about the popular trend of micro-weddings. The term micro-wedding refers to a very intimate ceremony with 50 or less guests in attendance, per multiple outlets.<\/p>\n

Hoda, 60, said that she would be down to have a micro-wedding in the future if she found a romantic partner. \u201cWhen that day comes, probably a small [wedding], yeah,\u201d she said when Jenna, 43, asked her what she thought of the trend.<\/p>\n

The broadcaster said that she could see why people would not want to have lavish weddings and spend thousands of dollars for just one day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re growing in popularity because I think people don\u2019t want to spend a ton of money on the party and then afterwards and then the bills,\u201d she remarked.<\/p>\n

However, Hoda also acknowledged that people with large families would probably find it difficult only to invite a small number of people to their wedding.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd also, I mean, if you look back think about who was at your first wedding,\u201d Jenna trailed off awkwardly, to which Hoda hastily replied, \u201cWhy do you do that?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sorry!\u201d Jenna said, seemingly realizing she crossed the line. \u201cWell, your only wedding! But when you think about it, weren\u2019t there some people who you were like \u2026\u201d she trailed off again.<\/p>\n

Hoda took the comment on the chin and said that her 2005 destination wedding to Burzis was somewhere in between. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t small but it wasn\u2019t huge,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She was married to Burzis for three years before their divorce in 2008. Hoda almost made it down the aisle again with Joel Schiffman<\/strong>, whom she got engaged to in November 2019. However, after postponing their wedding multiple times due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she announced their split<\/a> during a January 2022 episode of Today<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cJoel and I have had a lot of prayerful and meaningful conversations over the holidays and we decided that we\u2019re better as friends and parents than we are as an engaged couple, so we decided we are going to start this new year \u2026 on our new path as loving parents to our adorable, delightful children, and as friends,\u201d she said, referring to their daughters, Haley and Hope.<\/p>\n

While her relationship with Joel didn\u2019t pan out the way she hoped, Hoda is optimistic as she searches for Mr. Right<\/a> ahead of her Today<\/em> departure<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s always going to put her daughters first, but finding a man to share her happiness is a huge priority as well \u2014 as she\u2019s freely admitted, time after time, on the show and outside of work,\u201d an insider told Closer<\/em> in October.<\/p>\n

Hoda\u2019s schedule will certainly free up a bit once she marks her final Today<\/em> episode on January 10, as she will no longer have to wake up before the sun rises.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis new schedule will enable Hoda to get out there and breathe, relax, then hopefully connect with that special someone at long last,\u201d the source added. \u201cIt\u2019s her firm belief that if she\u2019d stayed on Today<\/em> this wouldn\u2019t have been possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
