Guilfoyle’s departure was initially billed as her decision. However, as HuffPost first reported last week, multiple sources said she did not leave the network voluntarily. They said Guilfoyle was informed her time at Fox News was up following a human resources investigation into allegations of inappropriate behavior including sexual misconduct, and that her lawyers had been involved since the spring. Sources also said that despite being told she would have to leave by July, Guilfoyle repeatedly attempted to delay her exit and tried to have her allies appeal to Rupert Murdoch, the executive chairman of 21st Century Fox, the parent company of Fox News, to let her stay at the network.

This story is based on interviews conducted over the past year with 21 sources inside and outside Fox News and 21st Century Fox. All sources spoke to HuffPost on the condition of anonymity because they aren’t authorized to speak to the press, did not want to raise Guilfoyle’s ire or have signed nondisclosure agreements that prevent them from speaking to others about their experiences.

Multiple sources told HuffPost that Guilfoyle’s exit from Fox News, where she had worked since 2006, came after her alleged inappropriate workplace behavior could no longer be tolerated by the network. Vanity Fair, which broke the story about Guilfoyle leaving the network, and The Daily Beast, which reported that Fox News staff allegedly waged a “hostile whisper campaign” against Guilfoyle, have said she crossed the line by using network makeup artists for personal outings, but the accusations Guilfoyle faced were much more serious.

Six sources said Guilfoyle’s behavior included showing personal photographs of male genitalia to colleagues (and identifying whose genitals they were), regularly discussing sexual matters at work and engaging in emotionally abusive behavior toward hair and makeup artists and support staff.

Guilfoyle announced Tuesday that she had left the Fox News.

[shanny]

1. Ugh

perfect match for the puke-worthy donnie jr tho

[brucefan]

2. A chick

With dick pics?

[Ilsa]

14. Transgendered, maybe? nt

[Scarsdale]

20. Did she supply

magnifying glasses with her photo of Jr.'s junk? Seems daddy has a micro penis, every bit as large as his BRAIN.

[WhiteTara]

22. trophies.

[Sanity Claws]

3. She will fit in well with the Trump Family.

She and Junior deserve each other.

[smirkymonkey]

6. She's going to need his money now that she is unemployed.

They are such a loathsome couple. I pray they do not have children together.

Does anybody else think she kind of looks like a guy?

[hlthe2b]

8. All that makeup makes her look older and quite "hard" IMO

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Perhaps she likes it that way, to suit her "dominant" personality. . . . nt

[PatSeg]

42. Yes

Everything is so over-the-top, even the hair, like a caricature of herself.

[Hekate]

63. That is the FOX "look" all over. Lots of hair, lots of cosmetics, short skirts, & plunging necklines

Plays dumb on tv.

[Sanity Claws]

12. He won't have money much longer

He just got divorced and has to pay child support for all those kids. (I think he has 5.)
Also, he is likely to be indicted and have his money frozen and eventually forfeited. ( I can hope, can’t
I?)

[Ilsa]

17. I have wondered if his wife saw the indictments coming.

She got out to secure her portion of marital assets before they were forfeited along with the rest of his ill-gotten assets.

[Sanity Claws]

19. That is what I think happened

[colorado_ufo]

39. Looks like she had a ton of reasons to leave,

especially after five pregnancies.

[shanti]

51. I read

that she just received an inheritance, so she probably wanted to protect that.

[Ilsa]

58. Oh yeah, especially if she could extract

her assets from his before they get comingled or he uses them to settle debts.

[olegramps]

37. If they do have children the children welfare agency should take them into protective custody

[colorado_ufo]

40. She is 49 years old.

Doesn't look very motherly.

[rusty fender]

49. She's 46, but Brigitte Nielsen just

had a baby at 52 so it is possible

Evil spawn comes to mind, though

[no_hypocrisy]

10. My first thought too. Jr. is marrying Lady MacBeth.

[olegramps]

48. She looks like Cruella de Vil in 101 Dalmatians.

[Solly Mack]

4. ew

[watoos]

5. I agree

a match made in hell.

[marble falls]

7. Two class acts. Their breakup will be as spec-tac-u-lar as their private lives are cringeworthy.

[jaxind]

9. Such Values!

Working at Fox News....gee...I thought you would have Christian and moral values! Everyone at Fox News is such a joke!

[ProfessorGAC]

13. A Side Comment Of Sorts

So, a woman you're dating says she wants to take a picture of your dick, and you say ok? Really.

Me: "Um, no! We're not doing that."

[Rorey]

21. If only Jr. had a brain

He would realize that she'll be showing/selling photos of his genitals too at some point.

[Harker]

15. There's a picture

of a dick in the original post.

[Anon-C]

52. ...

[Harker]

56. Is getting nuked in this limited context

reliably a sign of a particular attitude in response? I'm new here as a participant, so don't know.

[blugbox]

57. I think they just meant it as "BOOM" good one...

'Cause BOOM that was a good one!

[Harker]

61. Thanks!

Thought maybe my anatomical reference had gone awry...

[Anon-C]

59. My apologies for being obtuse - I thought your comment was spot on!

[Harker]

60. Thank you!

Not at all obtuse to use familiar shorthand... and now I know to look forward to maybe getting nuked again some day, which is a reversal of a lifetime's thinking. back.

[teenagebambam]

16. The oldest rule in theatre...

...never piss off hair and makeup

[demmiblue]

18. What a cesspool.

But Guilfoyle had become increasingly isolated in the past year, sources said. Three of her co-hosts on “The Five” (Dana Perino, Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld) have been given second shows to host themselves. Guilfoyle was not given the opportunity to host her own program while she was a co-host of the panel show.

Current and former Fox News employees told HuffPost that Guilfoyle openly complained about feeling slighted and criticized other women at the network. One target of her criticism was Judge Jeanine Pirro, who hosts the popular show “Justice with Judge Jeanine” on Saturdays and is close to Trump. Guilfoyle told colleagues that Pirro was too old (she is 67) and should no longer be on television, according to two sources who also said Pirro caught wind of Guilfoyle’s disparaging comments.

[Javaman]

23. sociopaths in love. nt

[HAB911]

24. two peas in a pod

[gratuitous]

26. Uncommonly considerate of them to take each other out of the dating pool

And I'm glad Kimberly has a new job now so that the taxpayers don't have to support her.

[olegramps]

38. Yes. It is better that they ruin one family than two.

However a marriage license should only be issued contingent on both being sterilized. It is diffidently justified as a protective measure to prevent detrimental contamination of the gene pool.

[dembotoz]

25. white trash reality tv show in the making if there ever was one

probably already has a slot on the trump tv channel

[ADX]

27. Skanks gonna skank...

[dhol82]

28. Strange that she was once married to Gavin Newsome

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimberly_Guilfoyle

Wonder how that happened? Pheromones?

[hlthe2b]

31. Long time ago and another husband in between... Her father immigrated from Ireland & was a Newsome

advisor.

Her father sounds like a good guy. Kimberly? well....

[Pepsidog]

35. She will be road kill soon enough. Jr,like his father, is an immoral prick.

[LisaM]

53. It is strange, and it makes me wonder about him sometimes.

I remember when they were touted as a power couple, but even then it seemed strange that he'd be with what I recall as a very aggressive prosecutor.

[Achilleaze]

29. republicans and their degenerate values are a curse upon America

They need to abandon degenerate republican values, and take up American values for a change. Sheesh.

[dalton99a]

30. A male genitalia connoisseur in her never ending search for more

[BuddhaGirl]

32. Can't believe Gavin Newsom

was married to her!

[hlthe2b]

33. DIvorced in 2005 and another husband in between. She appears to have been quite different in early

part of last decade--assistant DA even.i

[Fresh_Start]

34. She's going to fit right in to the Trump disgusting family

won't take any adjustment time whatsoever

[Mad-in-Mo]

36. A perfect addition to the Trump family

if Don Jr marries her.

[colorado_ufo]

41. She is reportedly showing off a huge engagement ring.

They didn't wait until his divorce was final.

[Mad-in-Mo]

55. Of course not. :(

[catbyte]

43. Oh, ew. It sounds like she & Uday are perfect for one another.

She sounds like a really vile piece of work. I usually reserve this for men, because women don't tend to flash pics of genitalia around to co-workers, but Kimberly, darling, this is for you:

[IMG][/IMG]

[cungar2000]

44. I think they got it wrong

Actually they meant she had dick pictures (pictures of Don Jr), not pictures of male genitalia.

[NBachers]

45. What a nest of vipers at Fox. Each one deserves the others. I wonder if she has First Lady delusions

[Nevilledog]

46. Only relevant dick pic

[Scurrilous]

47. Boink.

[Sneederbunk]

54. FOX culture is quite interesting. Needs to be studied.

[RhodeIslandOne]

64. You know it's almost a lock she slept with Roger Ailes.

Wrap your head around that.

[Squinch]

62. Every photo of Uday looks like he just finished saying, "Derrrr."

[brettdale]

65. This is not normal behaviour

Look I love having a go at Faux News as much as the next guy.

But forget politics for a second, there is a massive serious issue that they have with the people they're hiring.

Does this go more deep than we think?

Do you have to be some sort of sexual deviant to work there?

Is there some sort of conspiracy theory out there, that is not political.

This is not normal adult behavior.

Again, politics aside, how many people at this network are involved with harassment and unwanted
behavior???
