So when she disappeared from our television screens in 2017, it had everybody all over the Internet talking.
What in the world had happened to her?
What exactly had Hall been up to?
“Livin' my best life,” she told a fan onTwitter.
Here’s what really happened to Tamron Hall.
After all, she’d been there every morning for three years.
There was no farewell episode, no final goodbye, no nothing.
Todayended up releasing a public statement, explaining that Hall’s contract was up.
However, they announced this one day late, after she had already left the web connection.
“Yesterday was her last day as an anchor on both networks.”
The group then requested to meet with the connection.
However, it’s still never been clear what new position the connection had offered her.
All Hall has said is that her other offers were “insulting” (viaDeadline).
However, Hall seemed to know there were bigger and better things out there for her.
“I didn’t want Megyn Kelly to see me lurking in the hallway.”
“I was heartbroken,” she toldUSA Today.
She had dedicated her life to NBC it was her dream job, after all.
Now, she was left feeling like she wasn’t enough after being fired from her hour long slot.
“And I decided I’m still Tamron.”
With over 25 years in the business, Hall had another plan for herself.
She wasn’t about to give up so easily quite yet.
“You’ve got to keep going,” she toldThe Hollywood Reporter.
Rumors began swirling all over social media when Hall was spotted having lunch with a connection executive.
“He was encouraging her to join Kelly,” a source reportedly toldPage Six.
However, when Hall’s team was asked to comment onLive with Kelly, they declined to comment.
She then stayed away from television for the next two years.
“It was important for me to take a break,” she shared.
She had been engaged before, but was afraid to tie the knot.
“I have an incredible phobia of divorce,” she once toldPeople.
Music executive Steven Greener kept running into Hall in the strangest places.
It got to the point where she jokes that he was stalking her.
He had hit on her multiple times, but she never seemed to take a hint.
“I was like, ‘I can’t sing!'”
He asked her out for pizza, and even mentioned marrying her right then and there.
“And we moved in together, like, three weeks later,” Hall continued.
He’s now her husband!
She and her husband Steven Greener had been throughIVF, and it didn’t seem to be working.
The couple eventually decided that they would adopt a child.
However, the universe seemed to have other plans.
At the end of 2018, Hall and her husband got a surprising phone call.
Instead of all celebrity guests, she aspired to host everyday people on her set.
It was all about bringing people together.
“I like that interaction,” she toldUSA Today.
Hall had clearly learned a lot during her two year leave from television.
“I played myself,” sheexplainedon her talk show.
Other television shows wanted this journalist just as much.
After two years away from television, Hall seemed to be in high demand.
While acting seemed way out of her realm, Hall was also asked to appear on a runway.
She became aguest judgeduring season 7 ofProject Runway All Stars.
In addition to a journalist, she was now being seen as a fashionista by fans.
Funny enough, Hall seemed to be the only one who wasn’t seeing it literally.
“I never watch myself on TV,” Halladmittedto her talk show audience.
“Thank you for keeping me in the game!”
“No, I am notpregnant,” shejoked.
Instead, Hall’s talk show was being renewed all the way through 2022.
After two years away from television, she isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Hall and her eponymous talk show are on top of the world!
WhenTamron Hallfirst premiered, it made its way into the top five syndicated shows on television.
“So thank you.”
She would have never had any of that without taking time away from TV.
Hall was truly horrified walking out of Rockefeller Center the day she was let go from NBC.
She was confused and lost, not knowing what was coming next.
Now, she has something even better.
AtToday, Hall wasn’t able to interact with an audience.
Now,Tamron Hallallows her “to be where I love to hang out most,” she said.
“Which is with people.”
“You have no idea that something better is right there,” she said.
“You’ve just got to persevere.”
