Jobe Buck and his Wife, Michelle Beisner-Buck, possibly make one of the most recognizable couples in sports media. It is even better that the two have worked together on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” since Joe moved to the network in 2022.
Unfortunately, Michell was absent for several weeks from the show, and we now know why.
During “Monday Night Football Countdown,” Michelle revealed that her mother had recently passed away.
“This was a very special week for me to come back,” she said. “This story was also difficult for me to do because not just a week ago, on October 29, our family lost one of the most incredible people that this world has ever seen when my mother, Mary Beisner Wright, passed away. She got her angel wings.”
Of course, she mentioned that the network would allow her to take more time off to grieve the loss, but she wanted to return.
“I know for a fact, my mom, wherever she is, she is light on her feet right now and there is no pain,” Michelle said. “She is enjoying this moment. So thank you for letting me pay tribute to her, because she probably would’ve been upset if I didn’t, and I love you guys. I’m happy to be back.”
