Sherri Shepherd's best pal has exited the top role at the syndicated television show, RadarOnline.com has confirmed.
Executive producer Jawn Murray, who previously found himself mired in controversy, quietly left the daytime gabfest last week amid swirling behind-the-scenes speculation about what caused the sudden departure.
All a spokesperson for the show would tell this masthead was that "we can confirm that he is no longer with the show and beyond that we do not comment on personnel matters."
Murray, who was said to be Shepherd's closest friend and a confidant, was at the center of a June tabloid report that claimed complaints had been made to the show's human resources department after he posted a video that unnamed staffers called "inappropriate."
The television executive mused in a clip: "Is this a cultural thing? I’ve been noticing that predominantly the Black people in the bathroom wash their hands and some of the others don’t."
When asked about the reason for his departure, Murray sicced his high-powered attorney onto RadarOnline.com who blasted via email: "To be clear, the precise circumstances of his professional decisions are not your or the public’s concern."
