Sheryl Underwood experienced the sudden and tragic death of her late husband over 30 years ago. His suicide became a topic of discussion in May 2026 after comedians joked about his death during a special Netflix show titled «Kevin Hart’s Prank».
Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made a controversial joke about Sheryl’s husband, saying, «Her husband committed suicide three years after they got married. I’ve been sitting next to her for two hours and have to ask: how did he last that long?»
Fortunately for him, Sheryl was seen laughing at the joke. At the same time, host Shane Gillis commented on Sheryl’s tragedy, saying, «Sheryl's husband committed suicide. Apparently, black men really can crack if they’re married to Sheryl and jump off a damn roof».
«The logo of the Golden State Warriors is a bridge. Don’t show it to Sheryl’s husband», - Shane added. «Seriously, keep that bridge away from Sheryl’s husband».
Shane then admitted how «terrible» he felt making those jokes. «I called her yesterday. Shut up. I felt awful about it. I should have called her», - he said. «She was thrilled about it. She said, 'Are you going to laugh at my husband who fell off a bridge?' I said, 'Yes.'»
