The H3 Podcast crew has announced it will no longer work with host Ethan Klein, following allegations from his wife and co-host, Hila Klein, that he had an affair lasting more than six months.
In a joint statement posted on Instagram on October 23, the crew said its members were “shocked, angry, and heartbroken” by the allegations.
They confirmed the decision to end their professional relationship with Ethan was unanimous and said they would not continue working with him “involved or profiting in any way”.

Hila, co-founder of clothing brand Teddy Fresh, shared a three-part Instagram post alleging her husband had been unfaithful.
“I am living in a nightmare I can’t wake up from,” she wrote. She said Ethan had admitted to the affair after being caught in a lie, describing the betrayal as immeasurable.

The crew expressed support for Hila and said its members were looking after one another. However, it acknowledged uncertainty about the podcast’s future, stating: “We don’t yet know what that means for the future.”
The announcement came less than 12 hours after Ethan said on Instagram Stories on October 22 that the H3 Podcast was going on “indefinite hiatus”.

The show, which began on YouTube in 2016, has not formally announced its closure or plans for a replacement format.
Ethan and Hila Klein married on October 12, 2012, and share three children — Theodore, 7, Bruce, 4, and Sunny, 2 — together.
Ethan has not publicly responded to the allegations at the time of publication. The claims have not been independently confirmed, and the future of the podcast remains unclear.
