Speaking to Carson Daly on Today in 2014, Hoda confessed that she almost didn’t go out the night she met him. She said:

I’m so glad I went out that night because it was a chance meeting that ended up being kind of life-transforming event for me.

After three years of dating, Hoda and Joel moved in together in October 2016, leading people to suspect that the couple was engaged, however, as per reports, they are planning to take a step forward in their relationship, as they feel their strengthened bond will be beneficial for their daughter.  

The Finance Executive also has a daughter, Kyle, from his previous marriage. His daughter, Kyle, used to go to school in France.

Joel Schiffman's Net Worth: Hoda's No Slouch, Either 

Joel has been working in finance since 1987. His tenure at Threadneedle Investments as a Relationship Manager and his current gig at Janus Capital Group as its Vice President must have helped him rack millions in net worth.

His girlfriend, on the other hand, has a net worth of 20 million US dollars. A large part of her net worth comes from her 8 million US dollars per annum in salaries.

Together, their net worth puts them at the upper echelon of America’s wealthiest couples.

More often than not, when a woman in a relationship starts making more than a man, feeling of insecurity arises. The fact that Hoda has millions in net worth seems to have made a minimal impact on their relationship. If anything, this has led to their union.
