Julie Chen shows support for husband
In the wake of further sexual misconduct allegations against Les Moonves that culminated with the network head’s resignation from CBS, spouse Julie Chen has primarily been silent since taking to Twitter in July to express her unwavering support.
Last week, Chen took leave from her role on the daytime chat show The Talk since the reports about Moonves from a New Yorker piece by Ronan Farrow were followed in a second story that outlined additional allegations.
Returning to her longtime post as host on reality series Big Brother, Chen was her typically steady, stoic presence. But near the show’s conclusion, she expressed a form of continued support for her husband, signing off for the first time as “Julie Chen Moonves.”
It appears to be a continuation of Chen’s initial statement in July, which at the time she said would stand “today, tomorrow, forever.” — Los Angeles Times
