"We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jacklyn Smith, known to the world as Jacky Oh," the organization wrote in a statement on Instagram, "a talented Wild N' Out family member whose impact will be forever treasured and missed."
The media group noted the model will be remembered as a "loving friend and beloved colleague of the Wild N' Out cast through five seasons" and a "tremendous mother" to children Nova, 6, Nala, 2, and Prince'Nehemiah, 10 months, with partner DC Young Fly.
In a tribute days later, colleague B. Simone reflected on how Jacky Oh "lived life to the fullest."
"You were an amazing friend, entrepreneur, and above all a phenomenal mother," the fellow Wild 'N Out star wrote in a June 3 Instagram post. "I never understood how you balanced all of it but when I become a mom I want to be just like you. You have a village down here that will ALWAYS make sure your children know the exceptional woman their mother was."
And DC Young Fly expressed his gratitude for everyone who kept their family in their thoughts.
"We thank everyone for their well wishes," he told People June 5, "and ask for privacy during this difficult time."
