‘Today’ co-host Savannah Guthrie reveals the rules inside her 11-year-old daughter’s phone usage ‘contract’

Savannah Guthrie is dialed into her young daughter’s life.

The “Today” show co-anchor shared the phone usage contract she wrote for her 11-year-old daughter, Vale, during Wednesday’s episode of “Today with Jena & Friends.”

“My daughter got a little personal iCloud address and I actually drafted a contract for her to sign,” Guthrie said.

“I know that contract,” co-host Jenna Bush Hager recalled. 

“It was basically like ‘I know that mommy and daddy love me more than anything in the world,’” Guthrie explained. “‘I know that mommy and daddy can read my texts. I know I wouldn’t put in a text anything I don’t want grandma and grandpa to see [or] that I wouldn’t want to see on the front page of the New York Times.’”

Vale only has an iCloud address and not an iPhone, Guthrie clarified.

The mother of two insisted that even though Vale “knows that I reserve the right to look at her texts,” she confessed that she doesn’t monitor them.

“I trust her,” Guthrie added.

The 53-year-old broadcaster added that she believed the word “snooping” had a negative connotation and would rather call it “looking” or “parenting.”

Guthrie publicly hoped that her kids would never have a phone but confessed that she might have a “different” approach after they turn 16.

The “Today” co-anchor, who joined NBC’s morning program in June 2011, shares two kids with her husband, Michael Feldman.

Hager confessed that she was inspired to use a similar contract for her 9-year-old daughter, Poppy Louise Hager, when she turns 10.

“I need the contract again, unless I can find it in my texts,” Hager quipped to Guthrie.

Texts addressed to Poppy are currently sent to Hager’s phone, the 43-year-old television personality revealed.

“I get her text messages because she just gives everybody my cell phone [number],” she explained. “Which is enough to drive a mother- I mean by the way she doesn’t text that much because she doesn’t have a phone but she’ll use her iPad to be like ‘hey’ and somebody will text back ‘hey’ and I’m like, ‘What is happening where I’m getting GiGi’s Facetimes?’”

Hager said her eldest daughter, Margaret Laura “Mila” Hager, received an iCloud address when she was around 10 or 11 years old.

Hager is the granddaughter of the late former President George H.W. Bush and the daughter of former President George W. Bush.

She shares three kids, Mila, Poppy and Hal, with her husband Henry Hager, whom she met in 2004 when he was working for her father on his reelection campaign.
