SHEINELLE Jones has been given all the time she needs to deal with her private family matter.
Today host Sheinelle Jones previously took time out of the flagship breakfast show when she abruptly and unexpectedly stopped her anchor duties on December 18, 2024.
She previously broke her silence when she admitted she’s been taking time off to deal with a family health issue in an emotional Instagram post.
She wrote: “It’s not lost on me how lucky I am to have not only the support of my Today Show family, but to also have all of you.
Adding: “Your kindness means so much to me.”
And now Willie Geist has provided fans with an update on Sheinelle’s whereabouts and how her workplace is giving her all of the time she needs.
Speaking to People, he said: “I cannot wait to see Sheinelle again.
“We’re giving her all the time she needs.”
He then provided more information for fans, saying: “She’s dealing with a family matter or private matter, and she is such a valued member of our family.
“We want to just be there for her and whenever she feels ready to come back and sit with the group, we’ll give her the biggest hug she ever got.”
COLLEAGUES PROVIDE UPDATES
Willie’s update comes just mere days after Craig Melvin, Al Roker, and Dylan Dreyer provided an update on Sheinelle of their own.
Craig spoke to Access Hollywood and said: “I just talked to her a couple of days ago.
“She’s taking some time to be with her family and we talk to her all the time.”
He added: “We love our girl. It’s been nice to see how much everyone else loves her, too.”
Dylan also confirmed that she will definitely be back on air, explaining: “She misses being here.”
“She wishes she was here with us, but she’s doing what she needs to do.”
TODAY Show hosts
NBC's Today show premiered in 1952 and has bidden viewers good morning every weekday since, adding Saturday and Sunday shows in the 1980s and 1990s. The show's current host lineup includes:
Al Roker Savannah Guthrie Craig Melvin Jenna Bush Hager Carson Daly Sheinelle Jones Dylan Dreyer Peter Alexander Kristen Welker Willie GeistWhile 70-year-old Al added: “We’re just praying for her.”
HODA’S REPLACEMENT
The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that Sheinelle is to officially replace Hoda as Jenna Bush Hager’s co-host for the fourth hour of the show after she’s back from family leave.
According to our source, Sheinelle “has the job” but added how there will not be an announcement until after her leave of absence has ended.
The decision was seemingly made after Craig Melvin was promoted to Hoda’s news-driven co-anchor spot alongside Savannah Guthrie.
“Ratings with Craig are good.
“This taught executives that the audience wants people they know and that they should promote from within,” the source said.
Sheinelle was perfect for the position because she’s a seasoned professional, whereas Jenna is a less experienced anchor.
