Ann Curry is out as co-host of The Today Show , Savannah Guthrie is in and Matt Laurer’s marriage is safe. Wait… what?!? The National Enquirer claims Lauer’s wife, Annette Roque, was very concerned that her husband was pushing for long-time correspondent Natalie Morales to take over the seat next to him every morning, a situation that allegedly would have led to Roque filing for divorce. Why? Well, take a look at Morales… “When she heard about Ann getting the boot, the first thing she told Matt was she didn’t want him cozying up any closer to Natalie,” a tabloid source said of Lauer and Roque . “In fact, Annette drew a line in the sand and said if he pushed show bosses to make Natalie his new co-host, she’d divorce him.” This isn’t the first time that split rumors have sprung up between this couple. In May 2010, insiders also told the Enquirer that Lauer was having an affair . Nothing came of the story, the marriage remained intact and now, thanks to the hiring of Guthrie, it appears as if the same applies here.
