The news anchor who had an affair with the morning host/predator is going through a pretty ugly divorce right now.

Added to that is the fact that the kids appear to be on dad’s side in all of this.

Former home of TV’s Natalie Morales sells in Hoboken for $3M

A four-story Hoboken brownstone home once owned by TV newswoman Natalie Morales and her spouse, Joseph Rhodes, is in contract after being on the market for a mere five days.

The turn-of-the-century property at 1234 Garden St. was last asking $3.05 million — which is less than the $3.1 million that the current sellers paid for it back in 2016.

The five-bedroom, 3½-bathroom residence features a chef’s kitchen, a curved staircase with a mahogany handrail, pocket shutters and three slate fireplace mantels.

There’s also a 600-square-foot garden patio with a basketball hoop installed by Morales and Rhodes for their kids.

Morales and Rhodes bought the townhouse for $1 million in 2002 and created the addition in 2008, increasing the home to 3,600 square feet. – Source

Former Today Anchor Natalie Morales Is ‘in Shock’ About Matt Lauer, Blasts Past ‘Rumors’ – 2017

Like many others at NBC, former Today show anchor Natalie Morales is “shocked” at the news of Matt Lauer’s firing.

Morales, who worked alongside Lauer on Today before taking over for Billy Bush on Access Hollywood, addressed her former co-worker’s termination Wednesday morning for alleged inappropriate sexual behavior. The news anchor also made sure to focus the attention on the alleged victim instead of on past rumors about the nature of her relationship with Lauer.

“I woke up to the news like everyone this morning — just in shock. The Today show, of course, has been my family for 16 years now and it is difficult,” Morales said on Access Hollywood Live. “I think everyone is saying how difficult it is to process the news.”

She continued, “I have personally dealt with rumors in the past for years that were hurtful to me, my family – they diminished my hard work. I’ve addressed those rumors head-on in the past. That is not the story today. The story today is the courage of a colleague who did come forward, and when and if she wants to tell her story publicly, I’m sure she will. But it did take a lot of courage for her to come forward. It was no doubt a very painful decision.”

Rumors swirled in summer 2016 that Morales’s departure from Today to the West Coast stemmed from an affair between her and Lauer. The two quickly denied all rumors, with Lauer telling Page Six that “every aspect of this story is untrue, and it’s frankly sad that someone would tell lies to harm everyone involved.” – Source
