Allison Janney used a backstage interview at the 2026 Emmys to express continued concern for Nancy Guthrie, saying she thinks about the missing 84-year-old and Savannah Guthrie’s family every day. Janney won outstanding supporting actress in a drama series for playing President Grace Penn in Netflix’s “The Diplomat,” earning her eighth Emmy and tying an acting record. Savannah Guthrie said Janney’s tribute deeply moved her amid the family’s ongoing pain. Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson, Arizona, home on Feb. 1 and has not been seen; authorities have investigated ransom notes and released security footage showing a masked, armed man. Savannah renewed her plea for information, saying the family wants Nancy found so they can give her a proper goodbye, while a multimillion-dollar reward remains available for information leading to her recovery.
