Hoda Kotb shared a snapshot of Halloween at home, and it felt like a small, joyful touchdown. In a string of Instagram photos, the Today show star showed her two daughters dressed in spirited cheerleader outfits. The images mix family warmth, playful fashion and the kind of suburban moments Kotb has said she wanted for her girls.
New Halloween photos — what Kotb posted
Kotb posted pictures of her daughters celebrating Halloween. Fans saw Haley, 8, and Hope, 6, in mini cheerleader uniforms. The older sister wore a black-and-yellow outfit styled like a Pittsburgh Steelers cheerleader. The younger girl appeared in a blue-and-red look akin to a Buffalo Bills cheerleader.
Social engagement was immediate: likes, heart emojis and comments praised the cute theme and the sisters’ matching energy.
A look back at past costume choices
Kotb and her girls have made Halloween a family tradition. Their outfits have changed each year, but the spirit stays the same.
Memorable past looks
- Last year: Kotb chose a pumpkin-orange jumpsuit while her daughters again dressed as cheerleaders. Their colors that year were blue and purple.
- When they lived in New York: Kotb once donned a rainbow-themed costume with bold socks and sunglasses.
- Other years: The girls have gone for whimsical characters, including butterfly wings and a Glinda-inspired dress.
Why the move to Westchester matters for family life
Kotb has talked about relocating from New York City to the suburbs with her daughters. She described the move as a deliberate choice to give the kids more outdoor freedom and a calmer day-to-day rhythm.
She said the new house and town offer a place where the girls can run, ride bikes, and grow independent. That sense of space and play has influenced how they celebrate holidays.
Reflections on parenting later in life
Kotb has been open about being an older parent. On a recent podcast appearance, she reflected on the advantages of parenting with experience and perspective.
She noted that becoming a mom at a later stage brought a different kind of confidence. Rather than rushing to define herself, she said the extra life experience helped her offer steady guidance. She described this season as one of wisdom and calm.
