As fans may know, Jones’ husband, Uche Ojeh, died in May 2025 after battling brain cancer. <\/p>\n
In a new conversation with us weekly<\/i>Speaking at the launch event of her Through Mom’s Eyes book held at Double Knot NYC, the show host opened up about dealing with the loss following her sudden loss. <\/p>\n
“This year, everyone knows, has been a lot for me,” Jones, who has three children with her husband, began. <\/p>\n
He added, “It’s been an emotional roller-coaster.”<\/p>\n
For those unaware, Jones and Ojeh met in college and were married for 18 years. <\/p>\n
She also said that her focus now is on showing her children that strength and sadness can co-exist.<\/p>\n
“I would love for them to see me resilient, strong,” Jones told the outlet while promoting her new book, titled Through Mom’s Eyes, in 2020. <\/p>\n
He also shared, “(Matthew McConaughey’s mother) Kay McConaughey told me to never lose my humor.”<\/p>\n
“And so I want them to know that these days we have to hold on to two things: We’re grieving, but their father inspired their mother to write this book, and mother kept her promise, and we’re here.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
