From an outdoor perspective, it seemed that Daly and Hewitt were in love with each other. However, like many celebrity romances, the couple’s dates collapsed and burned after a year (but not before Carson got Hewitt’s call tattooed on his leg. ).

Two years after his separation in 1998, Daly talked about his breakup with Hewitt while sitting on People.

According to the TV presenter, he learned that the actor had kicked him off Howard Stern’s radio show.

“I woke up when Howard Stern told me that my date with [Jennifer] was over,” she said as she left, via E! News, in 2000. “Then I heard Steve Kmetko on E! Say:” Right off the Associated Press: Jennifer Love Hewitt and Carson Daly have officially screwed up. “

Unsurprisingly, Daly was not very satisfied with the way the actor broke up and even called her for the interview.

“If we had to officially break up like this, we might have just talked about it,” he said. “I don’t see why you had to tell your publicist. And now I’ve been publicly humiliated.

Although Hewitt blinded Daly when she broke up with him, he officially buried the axe with her in a 2005 interview on her Last Call With Carson Daly communication screen.
