Did Matt Lauer Have An Affair With An NBC Star?

Another accusation has been leveled against disgraced NBC anchor Matt Lauer.

According to Page Six, Lauer allegedly had an affair with a, quote, “famed and well-respected broadcaster.” A source told the media outlet they believed Lauer had the upper-hand in the relationship, explaining,

“Matt had influence over everyone’s career – one word and your career would be sunk. I know there was a clear imbalance of power in this woman’s relationship with Matt.”

A “clear imbalance of power” has seemed to be a common factor in a good deal of Lauer’s extramarital relationships during his time at the news network. This report comes about a week after the news broke that Lauer had been accused of rape by former NBC News colleague, Brooke Nevils. Lauer strongly denied the rape accusation in an open letter, but, as of Friday, October 18th, has yet to address the alleged affair.

The 61-year-old former anchor came into contact with countless broadcasters during his time at NBC, but the woman, who reportedly signed a nondisclosure agreement when she left NBC, has yet to be publicly identified. However, Page Six reports that they have agreed to keep her identify a secret at her request.

Additionally, in Ronan Farrow’s new book “Catch and Kill,” the author claims Matt Lauer openly and repeatedly harassed a former on-air NBC personality. The woman, also unnamed, told Farrow,

“[I] would walk into work with a knot in [my] stomach [having to face Lauer]. I was like a piece of hanging meat. […] I would come home and cry.”

According to Page Six, she was also asked to sign a nondisclosure agreement when she left the network in 2012. The outlet claims the NDA ensured that the woman could not speak ill of NBCUniversal or sue the company.

On Monday, October 14th, 2019, the President of NBC News responded to the woman’s allegations in a staff memo that read, in part,

“Farrow says this individual received inappropriate messages from Lauer, and showed them to ‘colleagues,’ not management, made no report, and we’ve found no record of one. She signed a completely standard separation agreement, including a routine confidentiality provision that was in her original employment contract.”

Despite the similarities between the descriptions of the two unidentified women, it’s currently unclear if they are the same person.

Matt Lauer’s longtime colleague, Ann Curry, could give more insight into the seemingly endless series of shady events that led to the anchor’s firing back in 2017 – but for some reason she’s held back so far. Curry worked alongside Lauer for more than a decade from 1997 to 2012. A source told US Weekly that she knows more than she’s letting on, and it’s enough to, quote, “destroy” her former colleague. The source explained,

“Ann has maintained a dignified silence, but a lot of people confided in her years ago and still do to this day. She knows more than most about the man Matt really is, and when she finally speaks out, it will destroy him.”

“I feel outraged. I feel empathy for the victims.”

Curry previously revealed that she reported Lauer for sexual harassment to NBC executives on a colleagues’ behalf in 2012 – something the execs have since denied, according to The Washington Post. She told The Post that she acted after a female staffer came to her in tears. Curry explained,

“She was afraid of losing her job. […] I believed her. I told management they had a problem and they needed to keep an eye on him and how he deals with women.”

According to Ronan Farrow’s book, that woman was a former entertainment booker for NBC, who told Curry that Lauer, quote, “propositioned and exposed himself” to her.

Perhaps all these years later, Curry is preparing to come forward with the rest of what she knows, seeing as she wasn’t afraid to be vocal about her support for Brooke Nevils. Curry tweeted on Wednesday, October 9th,

“Brooke Nevils is a credible young woman of good character. She came to NBC News an eager and guileless 20-something, brimming with talent. I believe she is telling the truth. And that breaks my heart.”

All of this comes almost two years after Lauer’s shocking firing. Only time will tell what else may unfold – and if Curry will reveal what she knows.

  1. He’s no journalist, he’s a news reader. He is also a piece of shit. I feel sorry for his family, how embarrassing for them.

  2. We know who the real pervs are.. and they all come from the fake news and Hollywood.. and they vote Democrat😎

  3. I wonder if Tamarah Hall left because of him. Was he gone before her? I liked Ann Curry and Katie Couric. Also Natalie Morales. Could pass on Savannah, Jenna Bush, and Megan Kelly. Kathie Lee was annoying. Hoda is ok.

  4. I had seen so many recommendations on Andrew so I contacted him to help me Clone my wife’s cell phone and WhatsApp. Just like Magic, I got the files to get it done and I have access to my wife’s phone. He was really efficient and I have access to everything including phone calls, logs, sms, files and location.What I like about the job is it being undetectable and can’t be trace back to me, I have this working for 3 months now I am just another satisfied customers.Thanks to Him, you can also reach out to him on +18064750817.

  5. Voor julle aantygings maak doen jou huiswerk. Skade vergoeding kan jou groot verlies laat ly. Dink voor jy praat, maak seker dis die waarheid en nie hoor sê nie. Sterkte.

  6. I'm really sick of guys being blessed with wealth & power, and they abuse it.I have nothing but disdain for him.

  7. This kind of explains why Ann Curry was so emotional when she was dissmissed from the show, Matt Lauer is hopefully paying for all the pain he caused over his years!!

  8. I believe he was a Elitist and in his own mind deserved all that came with it. But he was Metoo’d for asking Hillary about her emails. She was heard telling brass to fire him.

  9. At 1:32 Lauer is sitting down with that idiot medium. The medium claims he speaks to the dead but I guess he couldn’t see that Lauer’s career was about to die.

  10. Corrupt top management at fake news NBC covered for Matt Lauer for years. Liberal biased fake news like NBC/MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS are full of democrat liars that hate President Trump. So the best way to hurt all of them is stop watching their Fake News programming and don’t buy any of the products that sponsor their Fake News nonsense and lies. A Win win for the truth.

  11. Matt…. Matt is unfortunately cut from the same cloth that a lot of high salaried men are. WTF happens when the number of zeros on a paycheck increases? Do they feel they have ultimate power to abuse people? We’ve all learned it’s all illusion by now. At least, I would hope. Whatever….. it’s a vicious nasty world we’re living in now and the only protection is NOISE!!! Solidarity and NOISE‼️‼️ These characters have got to be called out EVERY DAMN TIME and the Powers that be need to stop protecting this abominable behavior.
