NBC host Willie Geist said that former “Today” host Matt Lauer is “reconnecting with his family” after he was fired from his job in November amid allegations of sexual misconduct.

“I’ve texted with him just on a personal level,” Geist said, according to Entertainment Tonight. “It was his birthday the other day, his 60th birthday.”
