According to People, Jones first announced on February 19 that she would undergo surgery to get rid of a polyp, which was making it difficult for her to speak well.

Following the successful surgery, she is to take six weeks off work to recuperate and get her voice back.

Before the operation, Sheinelle narrated her ordeal, which had her struggling for months because each time before her show, she had to do some throat exercise, and sometimes, she would fall into anxiety. In her words:

"Within the last month or two, I get anxiety when I have to track a story because I don’t know if I’m going to get a sound. And there are some days where it’s just better than others for whatever reason."

Luckily, all that is over now. We wish Sheinelle a speedy recovery and can't wait to see her on our screens again.
