Jones will cohost an entire week of Today With Jenna & Friends<\/em>, starting on Monday, September 22. \u201cMy good friend Sheinelle Jones will be with me all week long. I\u2019m so excited,\u201d Jenna Bush Hager<\/a> announced on the show\u2019s Friday, September 19, episode. \u201cWe\u2019ve been at this for a long time, I want to say six months, but I think even longer, and Sheinelle hasn\u2019t done it yet. So, we\u2019re excited we get to hang together next week.\u201d<\/p>\n
