Former CNN boss Jeff Zucker was spotted holding hands with a married CNN anchor at Don Lemon’s ritzy Hamptons party — even though his girlfriend was girlfriend.
Alisyn Camerota, 57, beamed as she walked hand-in-hand with Jeff on Saturday. Zucker’s girlfriend Alison Golst, 50, who had already cost her executive job at the media company last year, appeared to have left on her own.
The mother of three, who currently hosts CNN Tonight at 10pm, lives in Connecticut with Tim Lewis, 57, a partner at a private equity firm.
Holding hands in the New York summer heat, Zucker wore a blue shirt and white shorts, while Camerota wore a white blouse and black mini skirt.
It’s unclear why two-time Emmy Award nominee Camerota was cozying up to Jeff Zucker. However, this is not the first time he has done this with a CNN colleague.

Zucker, 58, previously had a long-term romance with co-star Alison – which led to the end of their respective marriages in 2015 and 2017.
They even lived on top of each other in the same Manhattan apartment block with their former partners.
And the couple were photographed together at a 4th of July party in southern Italy just three weeks ago.
The CNN boss was fired from the company in 2022 because of his undisclosed relationship with Gollust, who was the company’s global chief marketing officer.
Gollust, 50, and Zucker worked together for 20 years at NBC and CNN. At the time People said they had an ‘uncomfortably comfortable’ relationship together.
On Saturday, Golst was also seen in attendance at Lemon’s house – but unlike Jeff and Alisyn, she left the party herself.

Jeff Zucker and Alison Golst had a relationship for years, before she was forced to resign because she didn’t disclose it to CNN executives. They are pictured here together at Madison Square Garden in February 2022. It is not clear if they are still together

She was wearing a white dress and carrying a tote bag when she left her home in Hampton at around 3.16pm.
Camerota and Zucker left the glittering bash five minutes earlier, holding each other’s hands. They returned to the party 40 minutes later, before leaving in two separate cars.
Neither Zucker nor Camerota have publicly separated from their respective partners.
Zucker, Golst and Camerota have been contacted for comment.

Don Lemon, another ousted CNN colleague, hosted a party for friend Sunny Hostin to celebrate her new book ‘Summer on Sag Harbor.’
Alisyn Camerota and her husband Tim Lewis married in 2002 and share three teenage children together. They lived in a brownstone on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, but moved to Connecticut to raise their children.
In the early years of their marriage, they struggled to conceive and turned to IVF.
She gave birth to her twin daughters in 2005 and then to her son in 2007.
Lewis is a partner at Southfield Capital in Greenwich, Connecticut.
The CNN trio weren’t the only famous faces in the Lemon household. Joy Bihar, from The View, arrived home, and was greeted by Lemon and her puppy.

Sunny Hostin, who is also on The View with Behar, kissed Lemon on the forehead when he arrived at her book party.
Jeff Zucker resigned as president of CNN in February 2022 after he failed to disclose his relationship with Gulst as part of Chris Cuomo’s investigation.
Gaulst stepped down as CNN’s executive vice president and chief marketing officer after he ‘violated company policy’ by ‘immorally assisting’ Gov. Andrew Cuomo by agreeing to a few questions before his on-air interview.
Both formerly married, Golst and Zucker lived in the same apartment building with their respective families, worked together at NBC and then CNN for more than 20 years, and had what some called an ‘uncomfortably comfortable’ relationship.
‘Jeff took Alison to every job he had – after they left NBC, he tried to get her on Katie Couric’s show which failed, then he put her in his friend Governor Cuomo’s office, then took her to CNN when he got that job and failed along the way,’ a source said.
They are both now divorced, and a source told Newstimesuk.com that their split was at least partly due to their relationship.
Zucker pictured with his ex-wife Caryn in 2011 (left) and his ex-husband Billy Hult in 2008 (right). The pair have known each other and worked together for 20 years, starting at ABC, and media sources say their relationship was an ‘open secret’.

Zucker resigned as part of the fallout from the firing of former anchor Chris Cuomo, who blew the whistle on his former boss’s relationship in a fight for $18 million in severance pay he says he is owed.
Saturday’s pictures come just weeks after CNN heavyweights Jeff Zucker, Alison Golst and Don Lemon were spotted dining on the Amalfi Coast – amid rumors they could make a bid for the embattled network.
A photo Lemon shared on social media with fellow vacationer, super-agent Jay Sures, showed them enjoying a sunset dinner.
The group met on the small island enclave of Ponza off the west coast of Italy.
Lemon, 57, who was axed from CNN in April, posted photographs of herself and husband Tim Malone celebrating July 4 on the Amalfi Coast, including a video of the two jumping from a boat into the bright blue water.
In another Instagram post from the same trip, photographs of the elaborate group dining are included for a millisecond as part of a rapid-fire reel that comes with the caption: ‘Making memories with great friends’.
Along with Lemon, who was fired from CNN by former CEO Chris Licht as part of the network’s restructuring, the group includes Licht’s predecessor, Zucker.
