The Ellen DeGeneres "toxic" workplace scandal has shocked the world of showbiz, and while Ellen herself has apologized, the allegations and stories show no signs of letting up.
Now, the show's producer Andy Lassner has finally spoken out after a "couple of rough months".
The 53-year-old took to Instagram to announce that he was back after it was revealed that three producers would be leaving the show after an investigation.
He captioned the emotional video: "I've missed my people" alongside a heart emoji.
Watch Lassner's video below:Speaking directly into the camera, Lassner said: "Oh look who it is. If it isn't Andy Lassner. Well, yes it is. Your eyes do not deceive you. I'm back. I've been away for a little bit, dealing with - you know, some stuff. You may have read about it."
"It's been a couple of rough months. But it's when we go through these things, I guess, when we learn the most about ourselves, and maybe even some growth," he continued. "But to tell you it hasn't been rough would be a lie, and I've always been honest with you. It's been rough. But I'm back."
He concluded the video by saying: "I love you guys; I miss you and I'll talk to you soon."
This comes after Mariah Carey broke her silence on her infamous 2008 interview with Ellen, in which Ellen jokingly pressurizes the singer to open up about a pregnancy that sadly ended in a miscarriage.
The host began by asking the singer to address the rumors that she was expecting a child with her then-husband, Nick Cannon.
Watch the notorious interview below:"Don't discuss that…" Carey said, but instead of respecting her wish, Ellen produced a bottle of champagne and two glasses and encouraged the singer to drink.
"I can't believe you did this to me, Ellen…" Carey says.
"What? I'm not going to ask you if you're pregnant," DeGeneres said as she poured Carey a large glass of champagne. "Let's toast to you not being pregnant, if you're not pregnant!"
At the time of the interview, Carey has confirmed that she was indeed pregnant but took a small sip of champagne due to the fact that she wanted to keep her pregnancy a secret.
"It's too early for me, I only drink after 3:00PM," Carey said, as she took the tiny sip.
"You're pregnant! You're PREGNANT!" DeGeneres yelled.
Now, in an interview with Vulture, Carey has opened up about the interview.
"I was extremely uncomfortable with that moment is all I can say. And I really have had a hard time grappling with the aftermath," she said.
"I wasn't ready to tell anyone (about the aftermath) because I had had a miscarriage. I don't want to throw anyone that’s already being thrown under any proverbial bus, but I didn’t enjoy that moment," she told Vulture.
The singer continued: "(There's) an empathy that can be applied to those moments that I would have liked to have been implemented. But what am I supposed to do?"
