Megyn Kelly will not host the Thursday or Friday episodes of her morning show with NBC following her defense of blackface, sources have revealed.

News first broke on Wednesday that Megyn Kelly Today would likely end after the season finale, a year before her $69million three-year contract was up.

But sources later told CNN that Kelly would not host Thursday or Friday’s morning program – and was unlikely to return at all.

The news comes amid reports that Kelly has also parted ways with her agency CAA – which also represents NBC News president Noah Oppenheim – and hired top Hollywood talent litigator Bryan Freedman.

Kelly’s recent moves seem to indicate she is gearing up for a legal battle with NBC over the contract that made her the highest-paid host on the network.
