It"s like watching the romance unfold between Ron Burgundy and Veronica Corningston, live on-air.
Morning Joe"s Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are reportedly dating, according to Page Six.
This morning, the co-anchors were very coy, smiling as though they acknowledged the story, without actually saying anything.
"Can I get to the lead stories now?" Brzezinksi said as Scarborough was wrapping up a market report.
"There are a lot of lead stories," Scarborough said coyly, smiling as he sipped his chocolate protein shake.
"I will finish your sentence and start with politics," Brzezinski said, glossing over any teasing that may or may not have existed during the segment.
“Everybody at 30 Rock knows they are a couple …," a source told Page Six.
"They are constantly together, they arrive and leave events together, even on weekends. They are each other’s publicists and finish each other’s sentences.
"It’s the worst-kept secret in TV.”
It"s believed that they will go public with their relationship at some point in the near future.
Page Six reported that Brzezinski recently settled a divorce with her husband, WABC reporter James Hoffer after 23 years of marriage. They have two daughters together.
“Mika’s divorce was finalized in the past year," an MSNBC spokesperson from the network told Page Six.
"She’s really grateful that it was done amicably and in private. This has, of course, been a painful time for her family. So right now she is focused on her two teenage daughters, and on continuing to heal.”
Scarborough divorced his wife back in 2013.
Neither he nor Brzezinski have made further comments regarding the story. The fact that her divorce wasn"t public knowledge until now prompted the gossip page to delve into what might be a full-fledged relationship.
