What Were Megyn Kelly’s Specific Accusations Against Erin Moriarty?
In avideo discussionwith political commentator Michael Knowles, Megyn Kelly stirred up controversy by asserting that Moriarty’s current appearance“looks unnatural”and insinuating a plastic surgery-related“social illness.”Kelly’s claims were supported by two photos supposedly depicting significant changes in Moriarty’s looks over just one year.
Moriarty, however, strongly refuted these allegations, contending that one of the pictures was taken a decade ago rather than a mere year ago, challenging the credibility of Kelly’s evidence. Kelly in the video said,
“I thought it was just an AI-generated face… but apparently it’s real,–She’s done this to herself.”
