Roker highlighted their gratitude towards fans who have kept Jones and her family in their thoughts through prayers and well-wishes. He remarked on the show’s familial atmosphere, emphasizing that they are dedicated to supporting each other through tough times.
Jones, who has been with NBC since 2014 and became co-host of the show’s third hour in 2019, joins her “Today” family in missing work but prioritizing her family needs. Her absence has sparked love and support from fans and colleagues alike, reflecting the close-knit community she has fostered.
This heartfelt display from her colleagues serves as a reminder of the importance of community and support during trying times. Fans remain hopeful for her return as she navigates this personal journey, holding onto the bonds of friendship and care that define the “Today” show.
