Hoda Kotb’s Smile Is Infectious In Latest Instagram Share As She Wishes Her Pal Farewell


Hoda Kotb wished Eric Jackson a farewell in the best way possible over the weekend. While the mother of two is incredibly busy juggling two kids, a new fiance and a job on The Today Show, she apparently still makes time for friends, as well.

In the most recent photo shared on Kotb’s popular Instagram page, the television personality was pictured at a farewell lunch for her pal Jackson — and appeared to be having a great time. The 55-year-old wore her long, dyed locks down and straight in addition to a gorgeous face of makeup that included eyeliner, mascara, blush and lipstick.

Around the table, the talk show host was surrounded by five other women, as well as Jackson, who was clearly the center of attention. Like Kotb, Jackson wore a huge smile on his face for the photo op. He looked dressed to impress in a blue buttondown shirt and a black tie.

Kotb did not specifically mention where the lunch was held, but it appeared to be at a restaurant in New York City that was decorated for the holidays.

In the caption of the image, the beauty wished Jackson all the best as he makes his way from the 16th floor at Rockefeller Center to the 30th floor, where he will be working with E! News.

The post has only been live on her page for a short time, but it’s already earned her a decent amount of attention with over 2,000 likes and a handful of comments. While some fans took to the photo to let Kotb know that she looks amazing, countless others congratulated Jackson on his new job. A few more had no words for the photo and simply commented using their choice of emoji.

“Congrats, @jacksoneric on your new position!!” one follower commented on the post.

“Congrats @jacksoneric! Love that group!,” a second Instagram user chimed in, adding a red heart emoji.

“Lots of luck,” another social media user wrote, adding a few thumbs up emoji to the end of their comment.

As previously reported by The Inquisitr, Kotb shared another photo from her life this past weekend. That one was of her daughter, Haley Joy, and her fiance, Joel Schiffman, who could be seen walking with a Christmas tree in the city. It comes as no surprise that the post earned her a ton of attention from her army of fans with over 105,000 likes and 1,200-plus comments.
