Who was Jacky Oh?

Born Jacklyn Smith, Oh was a model and influencer who first rose to fame as one of the "Wild n' Out Girls". She met her partner, rapper and comedian DC Young Fly (born John Whitfield) on the set of the show in 2015, when he was making his debut.

While never married, the couple had three children: Nova, 6; Nala, 2; and Prince; 11 months.

Reports indicate that she passed away on May 31, just as she was set to undergo a so-called "mommy makeover" in Miami. A spokesperson for BET, whose eponymous channel is a sister network of MTV, told People:

"We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jacklyn Smith, known to the world as Jacky Oh, a talented Wild 'N Out family member whose impact will be forever treasured and missed.
"Jacky Oh was a loving friend and beloved colleague of the Wild 'N Out cast throughout five seasons. More importantly, she was a tremendous mother to three beautiful children."
