A New Era for Today Show's Fourth Hour

Sheinelle Jones is stepping into a new role on the "Today" show. She will be joining Jenna Bush Hager as the new co-anchor for the fourth hour. This change comes after Hoda Kotb left the show earlier this year.

A Familiar Face Returns

Jones has been a familiar face on the "Today" show for a while. She has worked as a cohost on the "3rd Hour of Today." Before this, she took some time off to deal with personal matters. She returned to the show in September after a break.

Bush Hager's Excitement

Bush Hager has been hosting the fourth hour alone since Kotb's departure. She has had many guest co-hosts during this time. Some of these guests included celebrities like Dwyane Wade, Ciara, and Scarlett Johansson. Bush Hager expressed excitement about working with Jones. She called Jones an "extraordinary broadcaster."

Jones' New Opportunity

Jones also shared her feelings about the new job. She said it felt "divine" to be back and to have this new opportunity. She mentioned that her family was very happy about the news. Jones has been through a tough year. She lost her husband to brain cancer in May.

A Fresh Start

The new segment, "Today with Jenna and Sheinelle," will start on January 12. This marks a fresh start for the show. It will be interesting to see how the dynamic between Bush Hager and Jones develops. Both have a lot of experience and a strong connection with the audience.
