Hey there, folks! While most of us were out celebrating the end of another work week on Friday, January 11, it seems like Megyn Kelly was getting some life-changing news. She's officially parting ways with NBC. Yes, you heard that right. Let’s dive into the details.

According to RadarOnline, the 48-year-old TV personality and former host of the Today show has officially wrapped up her contract with NBC. This brings an end to a three-month drama that had everyone talking. In a statement, NBC said, "The parties have resolved their differences, and Megyn Kelly is no longer an employee of NBC." But hold on—Megyn didn’t just walk away empty-handed. Let’s talk about what she’s getting out of this.

What Did Megyn Walk Away With?

Now, here's the juicy part. Sources close to the deal say Megyn, who was only halfway through her three-year, $69 million contract, might be leaving with a cool $30 million. That’s quite the severance package, if you ask me. This should officially close the chapter on the Megyn/NBC saga that began back on October 23, 2018, when Megyn made some controversial remarks about Halloween costumes.

Controversy Strikes: Megyn's Halloween Costume Comments

Let’s rewind a bit. It all started when Megyn decided to comment on a very controversial Halloween costume. During a segment, she said, "You truly do get in trouble if you are a white person who puts on blackface at Halloween or a black person who puts on whiteface." She added, "That was OK when I was a kid, as long as you were dressing like a character." Those words quickly went viral, and Megyn found herself in the middle of a firestorm. Critics from all sides condemned her comments, and NBC eventually decided to part ways with her shortly after.
