Sheinelle Jones' Heartbreaking Return to TODAY: What to Expect
Sheinelle Jones, co-host of the 3rd Hour of TODAY, is set to return to Studio 1A on Friday, September 5th, following the tragic loss of her husband, Uche Ojeh, in May. This marks an emotional homecoming for Sheinelle, who had previously taken time off due to a family health matter.
In a deeply personal interview with Savannah Guthrie, Sheinelle will share her experience of grieving with her children and reflect on the loss of their father. She describes her experience as a “beautiful nightmare” and offers a message of hope to those facing their own challenges. This interview promises to be a powerful and moving moment for viewers of TODAY.
Uche Ojeh, Sheinelle's husband of 17 years, passed away at the age of 45 after battling brain cancer. The couple met in the late 1990s while Sheinelle was a freshman at Northwestern University. They married in September 2007 and have three children: Kayin, Clara, and Uche.
Savannah Guthrie expressed the sentiments of the entire TODAY team, saying, “There are no words for the pain we feel for Sheinelle and their three young children. Uche was an incredible person. We all loved him. And so we want to take a moment to tell you more about the remarkable man who was Sheinelle’s perfect partner in life.”
