what happened to craig melvin on today show

Craig Melvin, a co-host of the Today Show, was absent from the program for a few days in July 2023, and then again in October 2022. In July 2023, his absence was due to a short summer break with his family. In October 2022, he was absent because he was dedicating his time to host a charity event that honors his late brother and raises awareness for colorectal cancer. Craig Melvin announced that he was stepping away from his co-hosting duties on the Today Show in August 2023 to host a charity event with his wife, Lindsay Czarniak. However, this move was not a permanent departure, and he was expected to return to the show after his commitment to the charity event.
