Carson Daly started his week by sharing a sweet on-air conversation with Jenna Bush Hager.
Daly filled in for Sheinelle Jones on the Monday, May 18, episode of Today With Jenna & Sheinelle. The reason for her absence was not explained on the show, though Bush Hager noted that Jones will be back in Studio 1A on Tuesday, May 19.
