CNN President Jeff Zucker has resigned from the company due to an undisclosed relationship with his “closest colleague.”

Zucker, who has been with CNN since 2013, announced his resignation in a memo to employees.

“As part of the investigation into Chris Cuomo's tenure at CNN, I was asked about a consensual relationship with my closest colleague, someone I have worked with for more than 20 years. I acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years. I was required to disclose it when it began but I didn't. I was wrong. As a result, I am resigning today,” Zucker wrote.
