Jimmy Kimmel dating one of his staffers too
Twitter
Stop us if you've heard this one: A late-night talk show host is dating one of the female members of his show's staff.Nope, it's not David Letterman we're talking about, and there's no extortion plot involved. People reports that Jimmy Kimmel is involved with the co-head writer for "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Molly McNearney.
Kimmel's publicist confirmed the relationship between the host, 41, and the 31-year-old McNearney, who's worked on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" for several years. A source close to the couple tells the magazine that after Kimmel split with comedian Sarah Silverman, he and McNearney "both found themselves single, and they clicked. They're really happy together."
A comparison to Letterman, who has admitted to having slept with female members of "The Late Show" staff in the past, is probably inevitable, but People's source brushes that aside. "During work hours, they keep things professional," the source says of Kimmel and McNearney.

theres nothing wrong Jimmy Kimmel (other than that hes not funny and he doesn't deserve the show) but Letterman was married and slept with a lot of women on the show
daniel has his facts wrong. for one thing kimmel is very funny. and, more importantly, letterman was not married when the affairs took place. he married his long time girlfriend just recently.
Yes, he did, and thankfully, she'll deprive him of a significant portion of his $300 million when they divorce, if the tabloids have it right.
I really like Jimmy Kimmel as a late night host. About this topic, I think it's okay to date co-workers or the boss, but obviously not if it is under threat or used to get a promotion. and things can get uncomfortable when the romance ends. but if both parties can be adult about it then it should be okay.
btw, I don't think David Letterman was married when he had his relationship/s with his staffers. Although I do think his now-wife (Regina?)was his girlfriend at the time, so i'm sure she's still not thrilled about it.
Letterman only married his long-time girlfriend about 6 months ago!
ummm...i'd hit that.
Quite a different story from the Letterman adultery blackmail. Good for both of them.
