Back in November, United States-based television network National Broadcasting Company (NBC) made a decision to fire "Today Show" host Matt Lauer for "inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace." More recently, Lauer's wife Annette Roque herself reportedly forced Lauer out of their Hamptons home.

Since he was fired from NBC, Lauer had been staying at home to drive his son to school. However, it seems that months of arguments and plans for divorce finally got Roque to force her husband out of the house.

Neither Lauer nor Roque commented on whether the two have formally separated.

Lauer has been staying at home a lot lately to spend more time with his children Jack, Romy, and Thijs. However, the threat of an impending divorce has always loomed between the couple.

Roque already filed for divorce years before, in 2006 citing "mental abuse, extreme mental and emotional distress, humiliation, torment, and anxiety" as her reason. However, she withdrew the case weeks after it was filed for reasons undisclosed.

This time Roque seems intent on filing the divorce.

Key people from the broadcasting network revealed that Lauer's misconduct was not exactly a secret in the NBC offices. According to various sources within the broadcasting company, it was just a matter of which girl has the courage to report first.

"This has been going on for months and months and everybody knew it and it was just going to be which girl came forward, and who reported it first," a source told Vanity Fair.

Meanwhile, Lauer defended himself by saying that most of what is being said about him were "untrue" or "mischaracterized."

"Every once in a while I'll read quotes from so-called insiders, and it's never true," he said.

Lauer stated that he now makes it his "full time job" to commit to making up for his mistakes.

"Repairing the damage will take a lot of time and soul-searching and I'm committed to beginning that effort," the former NBC employee said.
