Dylan Dreyer is a popular co-host on Today’s Third Hour and has been working on the NBC daytime show for a decade. However, the 41-year-old made a difficult decision at the start of 2022 to cut down on her hours on the popular program, in order to spend more time with her young family.
Dylan had welcomed her third son, Rusty, in September, and by January, she realised she needed to be at home more.
The mother-of-three had been a regular on Weekend Today, a job she had been doing for nine years. At the time, she was visibly emotional as she said goodbye to her co-hosts and viewers on her very last show.
Reflecting back on special job, she told everyone that she had started working on Weekend Today a month before she got married to Brian Fichera in 2012, and since then has welcomed three children.
Admitting it wasn’t an easy decision, she said: “I really don’t want to step away, but I don’t think I can do six days a week anymore. The boys certainly keep me busy.”

The star is incredibly relatable and often shares pictures of the realities of raising three young children in a New York City apartment.
The meteorologist was interviewed on TV show PEOPLE in 2021 shortly after welcoming her youngest son, Rusty, about whether or not she was hoping to have any more children in the future. The star swiftly answered: “We’re done, we’re tapped out.” And in terms of trying again for a little girl, she replied, “This is the girl,” and held up the book she had written, Misty the Cloud: A Very Stormy Day.
Dylan’s also proved time and time again that she’s just like the rest of us too, when it comes to relatable mishaps not only at home, but at work too. The meteorologist recently admitted to feeling down after stumbling in the middle of a broadcast back in March.

The star’s husband made sure that she didn’t feel too bad about it back at home, and surprised her with the sweetest gesture. To cheer her up, Brian presented Dylan with a vase of flowers, alongside a note which read: “It’s just wodrs,” mistakenly writing “words” wrong, a subtle nod to her on-air blunder.
