This coming after Jeff Zucker admitted to a yearslong romantic relationship with a senior colleague

Minutes later, Gollust — who remains at the network — issued a separate statement. “Jeff and I have been close friends and professional partners for over 20 years,” she wrote, referencing their time together at Today. “Recently, our relationship changed during COVID. I regret that we didn’t disclose it at the right time.”
Still, Zucker’s resignation on Wednesday after being away all week was a surprise to insiders. “No one saw this coming,” says one. Zucker also resigned his post at CNN’s parent company, WarnerMedia, which is in the final stages of being acquired by Discovery, run by Zucker’s pal David Zaslav.
