Fox host Jesse Watters has finalized his divorce with his estranged ex-wife following his explosive affair with a 26-year-old junior employee who worked on his show.
Watters, 40, and his ex-wife Noelle Watters, 42, finalized their divorce after 10 years of marriage this week.
Watters admitted to cheating on his wife with associate producer Emma DiGiovine, now 26, who worked on his show Watters World.
The pair were due to appear in court for their first day of divorce trial in Suffolk County, New York on Wednesday but failed to show up.
'As will happen, the parties called the court this morning and explained that the case settled,' a court official said to the New York Daily News on their break-up.
