It’s no surprise that Joe based the name of his company, Stockton Road Capital LLC, on the name of his first son.
Later, on September 9, 2008, they were blessed with another baby boy, Luke Hudson Rhodes.
A Child’s Death:
She is a contented mother now, but that is not all she has in her life. She had to deal with something terribly traumatic before the birth of their two sons: the loss of a child due to miscarriage.
Here’s a video of her getting upset when discussing her failed pregnancy.
What about the Matt Lauer rumors, are they all true?
Rumors, which spread like wildfire, had long found a victim in Natalie. Natalie was alleged to be having an affair with NBC’s Today show presenter, Matt Lauer, in 2006. According to reports, the two became connected during the Today show’s coverage of the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy, prompting Lauer’s wife to file for divorce against him, which she later rescinded. Furthermore, a more lethal rumor awaited her in the coming years.
Natalie stated that she was 12 weeks pregnant two years later, sparking another myth. Natalie’s unborn child was rumored to be fathered by Matt Lauer rather than her husband, Joe. Celebitchy did speculate on this rumor in April 2012, but it was never confirmed.
These rumors had long-lasting repercussions. Later that year, Matt’s wife, Annette Roque, allegedly threatened him if he insisted on Natalie being Ann Curry’s replacement. Annette was rumored to be on the verge of divorcing Matt at the time.
Natalie, on the other hand, was said to be threatening to quit if she didn’t receive Ann’s position. As a result, Savannah Guthrie was assigned to Ann’s position.
What’s going on in Morales’ life right now?
Natalie and Matt are still together with their respective partners, despite the rumors. Natalie currently resides in Hoboken, New Jersey, with her husband Joe, two children, and a rescue dog. The news of her divorce from Joe has died away.
Furthermore, both Matt and Natalie Morales have refuted the affair claims, according to many sources.
Having Joined Acess Hollywood: The tabloids were all over the story of Natalie Morales, NBC’s The Today Show newsreader, taking over anchoring responsibilities at “Access Hollywood” and “Access Hollywood Live.” Here’s what an NBC producer had to say about the tale.
“Natalie will now co-host the Access Hollywood Shows while still serving as a West Coast correspondent for Today. She’s already been sending an increased amount of time in L.A. doing work for Today, and with Billy Bush, 44, leaving Access Hollywood, it’s the perfect time for her to take over.”
However, she has now replaced Billy Bush as the host of Access Hollywood and Access Hollywood Live, as well as Los Angeles, where she became the TODAY Show West Coast anchor, and as she moved there, she sold her Hoboken Townhouse for $3.1 million and purchased a $6.8 million dollar lavish home in Brentwood. This expense may call her income into doubt, but she makes up for it with a hefty net worth of $8.5 million dollars.
We’d like to end with a video from February 14, 2014, when Natalie Morales, Savannah Guthrie, and Jenna Bush Hager each received extremely beautiful Valentine wishes from their individual partners while the three ladies were in Sochi for the Olympics. Nothing could be cuter or more lovely than this.
