Craig Melvin gets emotional when his wife Lindsay Czarniak and their two kids Delano, 10, and Sybil, 8, surprise him on his first day as co-anchor on 'Today.'

Craig Melvin is getting ready to start his new chapter as co-anchor of TODAY. In November 2024, nearly two months after Hoda shared her decision to leave TODAY, Craig was announced as the new face that will sit alongside Savannah Guthrie in the mornings.

Wofford College alumni dressed in black and gold and carrying signs were in the plaza outside the Today Show studios in Rockefeller Center Monday to cheer on their fellow graduate and South Carolina native Craig Melvin on his first day as co-anchor of the Today Show.
