Megyn Kendall just recently divorced her husband, and has changed back to her maiden name, Megyn Kelly, on-air. As for Brit Hume, he & his wife (Kim Hume) worked together at FNC. She was Fox's D.C. bureau chief, but not any longer. Marital problems between the two may have been responsible for her leaving her position with the network a few months ago, according to the NY Daily News....

The buzz out of Washington is that she and the anchorman had been tattletaling on each other to the chairman and CEO of Fox Television Stations. "They'd been calling Roger [Ailes] in New York separately," reports our source. "They'd complain to him about each other." A Fox spokeswoman denied that either Hume has bothered Ailes. "Nothing could be further from the truth," she said. But another source told us that the couple, who together weathered the suicide of Brit Hume's son, Sandy, in 1998, often argued in front of staffers. "Brit's not the easiest guy to get along with," said the source. "You disagree with him, and it's an argument. It's his way or the highway. [Kim] is a tough cookie, but he speaks down to her in front of other people."

Then there's former Fox News publicist Paul Schur....

Last month, Schur, who worked with both Hume and Kendall in Fox's Washington bureau until he left the network in August, anonymously edited the gossip into Kendall's Wikipedia entry, inserting this claim: "There are many rumors that Kendall has a very 'special' relationship with managing editor Brit Hume, the reason for her plum assignments at Fox News." Radar was alerted to the Wikipedia entry by an anonymous e-mail sent in late December. Wikipedia keeps track of the IP address of each user who changes an entry; when Radar became suspicious that Schur was behind the change to Kendall's entry, a reporter sent him an e-mail with a link to a website maintained by a Radar staffer. When Schur visited the site, his computer's IP address was logged by the site's tracking software, and it matched the IP address of the Wikipedia user that inserted the rumor in Kendall's entry. (The offending sentence has since been deleted.)

And then you can read whatever you want into this....

When, in a July interview with FishbowlDC, she was asked to name her favorite working journalist, she said, "Brit Hume. The man truly knows everything about everything." Later, in the same Q&A, Kendall was asked which of the seven deadly sins she most resembled. She answered, "Lust."

I think my head is going to explode.
