ExclusiveMegyn Kelly Has ‘Two Serious Offers’ For a New Job After Getting Fired by NBC
Making her big comeback? Megyn Kelly was fired from her NBC talk show, Megyn Kelly Today, in October 2018, but now the blonde beauty is gearing up to get back on the small screen again, a source exclusively told In Touch.
“She’s staying quiet about where she’ll be going, but apparently there are two serious offers that she’s negotiating,” the source explained to us. “Megyn wants to come back stronger than ever.”
After the Illinois native, 48, made some controversial comments about blackface on television, she apologized to her friends and colleagues in an email that was obtained by Us Weekly.
“I realize now that such behavior is indeed wrong, and I am sorry,” she wrote at the time. “The history of blackface in our culture is abhorrent; the wounds too deep. I’ve never been a [politically correct] kind of person — but I understand that we do need to be more sensitive in this day and age. Particularly on race and ethnicity issues which, far from being healed, have been exacerbated in our politics over the past year.”
However, despite her heartfelt note, the network didn’t give her another chance and decided to let her go. It seems like this transition has been beneficial to the TV personality, though. “Megyn is more than ready to get back to work,” the source continued. “She’s had enough time to mull things over, which includes the things she said, the way she was fired from NBC and the job offers that have come her way.”
Another topic that has always intrigued the journalist is politics. “She’s also ready [to] get in the mix on the 2020 presidential campaign, which is sure to be history making,” the source dished. “Megyn wants the glory she had when she was at the top of her game at Fox.” The insider added they believe that “she will get it.”
The mom-of-three has kept a low profile since the incident but reunited with her former colleague Kathie Lee Gifford at an event in February.
