Earlier this year, Today show fans noticed that Sheinelle Jones was often absent from the show’s anchors’ desk.

Viewers began to suspect that she was dealing with some sort of turmoil in her personal life, and their fears were later confirmed by the news that Jones’ husband, Uche Ojeh, was battling brain cancer.

Ojeh passed away in May, leaving behind Jones and the couple’s three children.

Jones’ hiatus from Today continued through the summer, but now, the beloved TV personality has returned to the show that made her famous.

She resumed her place alongside her colleagues during this morning’s broadcast.

But first, Sheinelle opened up about her loss in a pre-taped interview with her friend and longtime colleague, Savannah Guthrie.
