“We got on the plane, me and my girls,” she started. “We were going to go to Orlando, but there was weather trouble, so we had to sit on the tarmac in Tampa for three hours.
“And then we got there and wound up in Orlando around 7-8 at night, we left at 11 [in the morning],” Hoda continued, with Justin feeling bad for her.

“Hold on,” she added, before then bringing up another picture of her daughters during their trip with face paint on, looking as happy as could be.
