Jesse Watters in Damage Control Mode After Crude Kamala Harris Comment

This isn’t the first time Watters has faced widespread criticism over comments he has made on the air, as well as his behavior behind the scenes at the network.

During an April 2022 episode of The Five, Watters made a bizarre “joke” about intentionally deflating now-wife Emma’s tires because he was “trying to get (her) to date” him. Emma, who is 14 years Watters’ junior, worked for him at the time.

He added: “She couldn’t go anywhere. She needed a lift, I said, ‘Hey, you need a lift?’ She hopped right in the car.”
