Kelly slammed the pair after photos emerged of Robach jumping into Holmes’ arms in a PDA-filled embraced.
Megyn Kelly said the former anchors made a PR blunder.ABC confirmed their departures in a statement last week and described the affair and its fallout as a “distraction” to network employees.
Kelly argued that Holmes and Robach, who have been regularly photographed together in recent weeks, struck the wrong tone in their handling of the saga. “I think those two could have come out, they could have said on the show the next day, ‘We are very embarrassed. It’s true. This was a private matter that we wanted to resolve privately given the fact that we have kids and we have spouses, but we couldn’t, given the Daily Mail report. And we are going to take a leave of absence to deal with this. And we hope that we can earn your forgiveness and trust when we come back,’” Kelly said.“And then, lay low,” Kelly continued.
Kelly expressed her view that the couple’s behavior after the affair emerged played a key role in ABC’s decision to cut ties with them.“I think there is a very good reason why they lost their jobs,” Kelly said. “I think it was two things — the ridiculous PR behavior they engaged in post the scandal breaking. They handled the media exactly the wrong way, in my view. And number two, it came out that he had all these other alleged affair partners at ABC.
“My suspicion is they were in a position where, ‘What are you going to do?’ You’re going to fire the black anchor and you’re going to let the white female stay? That can’t happen. She had to go too,” she added.
