Amazon Studios has confirmed that Heather Schuster, its head of unscripted programming, has exited the company after less than one year in the role.

The company has not commented beyond that, but it's believed Schuster's departure comes after an investigation into 'verbally abusive behavior,' according to Variety.

It's rumored that Schuster made inappropriate comments during meetings, and allegations were made about possible misuse of power, Deadline reported.

Schuster joined Amazon Studies as senior creative executive in August 2017 and was promoted to head of unscripted in October.

Amazon Studios told DailyMail.com, 'We do not give out information about individuals at our company, out of respect for their privacy,' in response to a request for additional information about the circumstances leading up to Schuster's departure.

Schuster replaced Conrad Riggs in the head of unscripted programming role on October 24.

Riggs was removed from the position following the resignation of studio head Roy Price, who left his position on October 17 following sexual harassment allegations.

Price resigned just days after Isa Hackett, a producer on 'The Man in the High Castle,' detailed a July 2015 incident involving the executive at Comic-Con in San Diego to The Hollywood Reporter.

Hackett said he told her in a cab, 'You will love my dick,' and yelled, 'Anal sex!' in her ear, in front of others.

She also said that she notified Amazon Studies immediately in 2015, but was never informed of the result of her reporting the incident.

It's rumored Riggs was let go over concerns about his management style, Deadline reported in October.

The most well-known venture in Amazon Studios' unscripted programming vertical to date, has been 'The Grand Tour,' the 'Top Gear' sequel brought to fruition under Riggs in May of 2016.

Riggs, who has been a long-time producer partner of Mark Burnett, worked with Schuster during her five seasons producing on the Apprentice, which was fronted at the time by Donald Trump, before he was elected president.

After that, Schuster spent one year working with Ryan Seacrest Productions before starting her own production company with All3Media.

Then, last year, Schuster was hired by Price, Riggs, and the also now-departed Joe Lewis, who was head of comedy and drama at Amazon Studios, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Schuster could not immediately be reached for comment.
