Meredith Louise Vieira is an American journalist and television host. The highly credible newswoman is at the forefront of NBC’s news programming. The National Broadcasting Company has hired Meredith to host many of their shows including NBC News, Dateline NBC and NBC Nightly News.
Meredith was the presenter of a TV program called Intimate Portrait. The documentary series was famous for highlighting successful women and their stories. It included women from all walks of life including sports, science, and entertainment. The show would try to give the viewer a deep look into the women’s lives by interviewing the family and people closest to them. Meredith was proud to be part of a show that tried to put women under a positive spotlight.
Meredith got married to her husband, Richard M Cohen in 1986. The loving couple has stayed married to each other for over two decades. There has never been any hint on divorce in their relationship. Their marriage has been made stronger by the obstacles they have had to overcome. For 30 years, her husband Richard has lived and suffered from the condition known as multiple sclerosis.
Richard is legally blind and the MS disease has started to affect his vocal cords and limbs. His former girlfriend abandoned him, when he revealed that he had MS to her. It is sad and unfortunate but it is common for people to leave their loved ones when tragedy strikes. Richard’s ex girlfriend might have been too young and immature to accept Richard’s fate. She was scared and did the only thing she felt comfortable doing when she decided to leave Richard.
Meredith was a different beacon of light for Richard. While his ex girlfriend left him when he revealed his condition, Meredith stood by his side. Meredith could empathize with Richard because she also had to deal with a serious health condition. She was diagnosed with colon cancer and had it removed twice. Meredith and Richard have a very honest and open relationship where they tell each other everything without fear. Richard no longer has to worry about his lover leaving him no matter how bad things get.
Meredith has said that there are a lot of things that made her marriage as strong as a rock. One of the most important things in their relationship is there shared sense of humor. Meredith and Richard love to have fun with each other no matter how old they get. They like to do simple funny thing like poke each other randomly. They also like to include their three children in the fun.
Even though Meredith have a very loving relationship, there were some unfortunate rumors about Meredith having a secret relationship with the famous TV personality, Matt Lauer. There were a lot of pictures which hinted at them having an intimate relationship. The pictures were taken at Matt’s birthday party and caused a lot of whispers because of the content. The pictures showed Vieira smearing some cream on Matt’s nose while he was laughing. Some people automatically assumed that they were flirting while others guessed that they were just friends having fun.

There was a Halloween costume party picture in which Matt was dressed as Luke Skywalker and Meredith was dressed as Leia. If they weren’t having an affair, it was a bad move for them to go dressed together as Star Wars characters. Some of the media shot down the rumors, pointing to the fact that Matt would have been dressed as Han Solo if they were really dating.
There were no comments from Matt or Meredith about the controversial pictures. They both refused to address the rumors. It was speculated that Matt’s spouse had applied for a divorce but delayed the proceedings when she found that she was pregnant with his child. It was rumored that Meredith was his back up girl that he would start a new relationship with if his marriage ended up in divorce. Nothing came out of Meredith’s and Matt’s supposed fling. The only thing the media knows now is that Matt and Meredith have remained good friends.
Some of the media assumed that the rumors of Matt and Meredith were true because of her husband, Richard’s condition. Since he is not able to physically satisfy Meredith on a regular basis, she may have had to look elsewhere to fulfil her female desires. Their close friends claimed that the pictures did not have a lot of effect on their relationship. Richard believed his wife and there were no arguments between them on the nature of the pictures. The pictures did not cause any rift between them. While some assume that there would be talks of divorce, the talks never came. In the end, it was either pure speculation from the media or just a small thing between friends that got blown out of proportion.
There was no concrete evidence that Meredith was dating Matt or anyone during her relationship with Richard. Richard has been never available for any comments on the rumors. He has bigger things to deal with than silly rumors about his marriage. He loves his wife dearly and trusts her completely. She stuck with him through hard times and it would be out of character for her to betray his trust. Meredith loves to talk a lot about Richard all the time, both in a humorous way and also on a serious note. Their children are invisible to the media because their parents want to shield them from the public eye. Richard was never seen with any girl, who can be tagged as a secret lover. Even if he did have desire for any extra relationship, his condition would make it really difficult to do so. He was never accused of cheating on Meredith and would be a fool to do so because of all the things she has done for him. The only negative point she ever mentioned about him was during the hardest parts of his sickness. She said he became very angry and out of control but that was to be expected because of the issue he was dealing with.
