Radar Online released an image of the two kissing one another and that was the small spark that led to a big wildfire.
He immediately got fired from NBC and his contract with the show to catch a predator was not renewed. It seems his small fun has led him towards his own disaster.
NBC stated that "The reason Hansen’s contract wasn’t being renewed was simple, his personal life was becoming an embarrassing distraction to NBC. As a journalist, when your personal life begins making the news, there are big problems.”
At that time his wife didn't comment on the situation and it looks like she has nothing to say about her cheater of a husband.
Kristyn Statement
Few months after the incident Kristyn officially spoke about the incident. She revealed a shocking truth that Chris used to say that he is going to give divorce to his wife and his marriage is officially over.

She stated that "Chris was flying me all over the country; putting us up in the finest hotels; having dinner and mingling with many of his colleagues; having our photographs taken together in public places; he would even speak with my family on the phone."
She also said that the 4-months-affair had a very negative impact on her career. She said that all she has nothing to do with the Chris now, and all she wants is a career that she rightfully deserves.

The couple got married on 18th November 1989 and they are stuck to each other ever since. Despite his affair, his wife remained with him when all the country was thinking that he will definitely get divorced from his wife for real now.
