It wasn’t too long ago that model Chloe Dykstra penned a letter going into detail about the sexual and mental abuse she endured while in a relationship with celebrity host Chris Hardwick. While Hardwick denied the allegations, AMC dropped Hardwick from their show Talking Dead, an after-series discussing all things surround The Walking Dead. It seems, though; after an internal investigation that AMC is ready to bring Hardwick back.
After Hardwick’s dismissal, Yvette Nicole Brown took over. She monitored The Walking Dead panel at SDCC and will still host the season nine preview show on August 5th. After that, Yvette will still co-host alongside Hardwick. While Hardwick is returning to the Talking Dead, it’s still not been determined if his show Talking with Chris Hardwick will be picked back up.
This decision to bring him back comes from an internal investigation. Although Dykstra went into detail about the abusive relationship she had with an ex-boyfriend, she did not outright say that it was Hardwick, though many believe due to the timing and tone of her letter that he was the ex she was referring to. I can imagine Hardwick’s return will not sit well with many and we can all agree that abuse of any kind in a relationship is unacceptable.
