On Friday, Jan. 2, Jones, 47, signed off for the final time before joining Jenna Bush Hager, 44, as the new permanent co-host of Today's fourth hour. Jenna & Sheinelle will officially kick off on Monday, Jan. 12.
As Craig Melvin, 46, introduced a segment highlighting some of Jones' top moments during the third hour of Today, she fanned her eyes, telling herself, "No crying."
Today then played a clip featuring Jones, her daughter, Clara, her mother, Sheila, and her grandmother, prompting Jones to dry her eyes.
"You're so real and authentic on camera and off," Melvin said to Jones, avoiding her gaze so he didn't start crying. "And when you shared your mantas and you share your poetry with us and with the world, I always enjoy those moments. They make my heart smile."
After playing a clip of Jones reading a poem she wrote, Melvin shared an original poem of his own.
Melvin then touched on Jones losing her husband, Uche Ojeh, in May, when he died after a battle with brain cancer.
By the end of the reading, Jones was holding back tears as she hugged Melvin.
She concluded, "To you guys at home, thank you so much for all of it... This has been one of the best rides of my life, with you guys."
