Sheinelle Jones’ Husband Uche Ojeh Dies at 45

Uche Ojeh, husband of 'Today' show co-host Sheinelle Jones, died at age 45 after a battle with glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. The news was announced by Jones' NBC colleagues, who remembered Ojeh as a devoted father, loyal friend, and proud of his Nigerian heritage. Ojeh and Jones, who met at Northwestern University and married in 2007, have three children: Kayin, 15, and twins Clara and Uche, 12. Jones had been absent from the 'Today' show since December 2024 to care for Ojeh during his illness. She expressed gratitude to fans and colleagues for their support during this period. The 'Today' show community continues to support Jones and her family as they mourn Ojeh's passing.
