This June 18, 2012 photo shows Ed Henry, chief White House correspondent on the Fox News Channel, talking about his pocket squares and ties at the Brooks Brothers flagship store in New York. Henry's pocket square flair all started as a friendly fashion competition with a former colleague. It was all about the bigger, better necktie back then, Henry says. There was an unending game of one-upmanship with more colorful shirts, perhaps even a pattered vest. Going around the globe, Henry says he picks up ties and pocket squares as souvenirs, and they act as a bit of a travelogue. (AP Photo/Richard Drew) MORE LESS

Fox News Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry won’t appear on air after a tabloid story that Henry had a 10-month-long affair with a Las Vegas hostess, Politico reported Wednesday.

“We recently became aware of Ed’s personal issues and he’s taking some time off to work things out,” a Fox News spokesperson said in a statement provided to TPM.

InTouch Weekly first reported details of the affair in an issue that included an interview with a woman identified as his mistress.

Henry joined Fox News in 2011 after working as a White House correspondent for CNN.

  1. Miss Kitty would have hooked him up with someone more discrete.

  2. Might want to check in with your nominee there Ed. Apparently infidelity is back on the menu with them.

  3. The tabloids giveth, and the tabloids taketh away.

  4. Well, I guess if Ed Henry wants to commit adultery AND have the support of FoxNews, he’ll have to run for the Presidency, like their golden boy, Drumpf!
