Michael Muhney is known as an American actor. He is most famous for his role as Sheriff Don Lamb in the popular young adult science fiction TV show Veronica Mars and also for his role as Adam Newman in the long running soap opera ‘The Young and the Restless’.
Career Controversy
He is married to Jamie Muhney. He and his wife have three children. Unfortunately for the reputation of his family, he has been a part of many harassment cases. He was fired from the ‘The Young and the Restless’ cast because of his behavior with Hunter King, the actress who starred as Summer on the show.
According to Hunter, Michael fondled her breast twice. Hunter requested him to leave her but he did not take his hands off her. She took the complaint to CBS and Sony and demanded him to be fired or else she would file a case with the police. There is another type of a rumor about him and Hunter. According to this rumor, Hunter approached Michael and made romantic advances to the father of three. He refused the approach and she got angry and created a story to fire him.
There were a lot of rumors about Michael being fired from the show as he had some problems with writers. The production unit took this story to their advantage and fired him. After the rumor about his incident with Hunter King, people expected Jamie to leave her husband. She did not respond to this issue nor did she make any action towards a divorce.
King did not make any other comment on this issue and denied any questions about the controversy. Thus, there is no detailed information about what actually happened. According to his sister, the only people who knew what happened are her brother and King. She also said that her brother is a great person and wouldn’t be someone to commit such an act.
As there are no actions or comments from Jamie, It can be concluded that she did not believe the story about her husband. All the co-stars on the show supported King and said that she is not a kind of person who would pull such a lie against anyone. In his interview after he got fired from the show, Michael said that he was sorry that sometimes his character leaks into his real life.
Personal Life
His marriage life is smooth even after the rumors. Even though the sexual harassment incident has a deep impact on his career, no one in his family seems to believe it. This indicates that his personal life is smooth and full of trust.
Jamie has never talked about her married life, children and Michael to the media. There are a lot of pictures of the couple with the children and that is all about his family life that is known to the media. Even Michael does not talk about Jamie, his children and his relationship with them because he wants to shield them from the public harassment of the media.
