Sheinelle Jones makes emotional Today show return after husband’s death: ‘I’m fighting for my joy’

Today co-host Sheinelle Jones has opened up about navigating the grief of her husband’s death as she returns to the popular morning show.

Jones, 47, has been on leave from the third hour of Today — which she co-hosts with Al Roker, Craig Melvin and Dylan Dreyer — since January, when she announced she was navigating a “family health matter.” It was later revealed that her husband, Uche Ojeh, had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer. He died in May, aged 45.
