He added, “LOVE YOU FOREVER. Jus know we goinn harder than ever and GOD is in control and he got us covered.”
DC Young Fly’s emotional tribute comes nearly a week after the official “Wild ‘N Out” Instagram page announced Oh’s death in a statement on June 2.
“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,” the statement read.
“Jacky Oh was a loving friend and beloved colleague of the Wild N’ Out cast throughout five seasons,” the statement continued. “More importantly, she was a tremendous mother to three beautiful children.”
Oh hosted a YouTube channel where she frequently chronicled life with her children. Oh’s most recent video was posted on May 27. It follows the family as they attend a screening of the live-action “Little Mermaid.”
