Savannah Guthrie has got some strict rules for her kids at home: you can look but you can't touch! The Today star's stunning New York City home is so chic it looks like a boutique hotel, but living there comes with some conditions –because white couches and little fingers are not a great mix!
Her rules however have paid off, and now that she is selling her TriBeCa apartment, it is surely in mint condition thanks to the expectations she has set for her kids, Vale, eight, and Charley, six.
The star has revealed glimpses of her stunning home throughout the years she lived in it - and one such peak – and proof that her cleaning standards are most definitely needed – came when she shared a glimpse of her kids painting work on some Easter eggs back in April.
