Katy's Boyfriend, Dating, And Affair:

Katy was involved with Keith Olbermann for three years. The fact about their age difference didn’t matter to them; though Tur was 26 and Keith 51 when they started dating since June 2006, planning to extend their relationship lifelong as a husband-wife relationship someday.

Their relationship became one of the significant advantages to Katy Tur in her career. It has been implied that Keith’s effort and presence were one of the reasons she landed her first job at NBC New York in 2009. Keith also fully supported Tur at every step of her life. Keeping all these professional stuff away from her personal life, Tur had a well-balanced experience.

Life is often cited as a bunch of various ups and downs. And the downs were to come along. Such an adorable couple got separated despite their intense relationship. The happy couple ended turning into distant cities; beyond their expectation. Katy Tur and Keith Olbermann announced their breakup in 2009. Their affair was started from 2006 to 2009.

After a year of separation, Katy Tur and Keith Olbermann were called for a video interview in which Olbermann expressed his feelings towards his longtime girlfriend Tur saying: my dear friend. Olbermann also felt guilty for himself as he couldn’t hold their relationship lifelong.

Katy Tur later denounced the Trump team for trying to blame the media. She said, 

“So what they’re trying to do is find a way to best game this system. And what you’re seeing on TV, all over the airwaves, is his campaign manager and his surrogates trying to blame the media before the media has even covered the debate. They’re going to say that everybody in the press is going to be unfair, that Donald Trump is going up against a rigged system.”
