Megyn Kelly is not about to let former Fox CEO, Roger Ailes get away with the way he treated her during the time they worked with each other.
45-year-old, Kelly, started working for the network in 2004 and has revealed to Dr. Phil that her issues with Ailes kicked off just 12 months after she started.
“My problems with Roger began when I was at the company for 12 months — I was a first-year reporter,” says Kelly.
Kelly revealed she was called up to New York for a meeting and that’s when things got horrible.
“But the problem with that meeting and with several that happened over the next six months was not only was there legitimate professional advice, but there were grossly inappropriate comments,” says Kelly, who also revealed Ailes kept making comments about her body.
kelly was quick to point out that things were only going to get more worse for her.
“It grew more severe over time,” she adds.
“He said he knew I must have some ‘very sexy bras’ and he’d like to see me in them.” “I’m not looking to be salacious, and trust me, this isn’t pleasant for me to discuss,” she says.
If this all turns out to be true, it shows just how despicable Roger Ailes is.
“But I want people to understand this was real, he did do this, and I was far from the only one.”
The whole ordeal must have been horrific for Megyn, but Ailes’ attorney, Susan Estrich previously revealed that her client denied all of the allegations.
“Mr. Ailes denies her allegations of sexual harassment or misconduct of any kind.”
Megyn was not the only one to reveal she was targeted by Roger Ailes.
Fox News host, Gretchen Carlson filed a lawsuit earlier this year, claiming sexual harassment and retaliation.
In the wake of those claims being revealed, Ailes resigned from his position with the network.
Megyn Kelly’s memoir, Settle For More will be released tomorrow.
