About

Ned From Try Guys Cheating Scandal refers to Ned Fulmer from the long-standing BuzzFeed YouTube show the Try Guys cheating on his wife, Ariel Fulmer, with his coworker Alexandria Herring. Speculation about something being amiss regarding Ned Fulmer began on Reddit after a user posted about Ned cheating on September 3rd, 2022, in which they proceeded to share photos and videos over direct messages with other users on /r/TheTryGuys. The user also claimed to be Will Thayer, Alexandria's fiancé. These rumors were bolstered by users on the subreddit identifying various video and commercial segments Ned was edited out of or excluded from in post-production. People on Twitter subsequently began to discuss similarities between "wife-guys" like Ned Fulmer and stand-up comedian John Mulaney. Ned Fulmer went on to confirm the rumors in a Twitter post on September 27th, 2022, which stated, "I Lost Focus And Had A Consensual Workplace Relationship," earning him further criticism.

Also on September 27th, Ned Fulmer released a statement on his official Twitter[9] account regarding the issue, effectively confirming the rumors about him cheating on his wife. The post has gathered over 3,000 likes in less than an hour (seen below)

Ned Fulmer @nedfulmer Family should have always been my priority, but I lost focus and had a consensual workplace relationship. I'm sorry for any pain that my actions may have caused to the guys and the fans but most of all to Ariel. The only thing that matters right now is my marriage and my children, and that's where I am going to focus my attention.

Try Guys "what happened" Video

On October 3rd, 2022, the Try Guys posted a YouTube[10] video titled, "what happened," where they talked about the events of the past month, Ned's actions, and the company's steps moving forward. The video gathered 4.6 million views in a day (seen below).

The video set of a series of reactions on social media, with most fans commenting on the distinct differences in each Try Guy's demeanor in the video. Some fans noted that Eugene in particular looked angry and upset while Zach and Keith looked more sad and disappointed.

I Lost Focus And Had A Consensual Workplace Relationship

I Lost Focus And Had A Consensual Workplace Relationship refers to a quote from Ned Fulmer's apology that emphasized his affair with a younger co-worker was "consensual," therefore subtly defending it while also avoiding further cancelation regarding possible MeToo allegations. The catchphrase trended in memes on Twitter thereafter, paired with multiple image macros from different TV shows and subcultures throughout September 2022.
