what happened to ed henry and karyn turk

Ed Henry and Karyn Turk were abruptly removed from their co‑hosting roles on Real America’s Voice (RAV)’s morning show American Sunrise in August 2023, and they have not returned as regular hosts on the network since then.

What happened at Real America’s Voice

  • In early 2022, Ed Henry and Karyn Turk became co‑hosts of American Sunrise , RAV’s signature morning program, branded as “America’s favorite sunrise morning show.”
  • In August 2023, both were “benched”: sources told outlets that RAV leadership decided to pull them off the air without warning, and neither the public nor the sponsors were formally notified.
  • According to reporting, the situation stemmed in part from Ed Henry sharing that he had received an offer to join another news network; RAV, citing his contract (which reportedly ran through November 2023), opted to sideline him and block the move, effectively freezing his role.

Legal and personal issues around the same time

  • Around that period, Ed Henry was also dealing with a civil lawsuit filed by a former Fox News producer, Jennifer Eckhart, who accused him of sexual assault; Fox News itself was later dismissed from that case, but the allegations remained part of the broader negative coverage of him.
  • In June 2023, Henry was arrested for a DUI in Florida; body‑cam footage and media reports showed that Karyn Turk, who is not his wife, was in the car with him and argued with deputies at the scene.
  • Both insisted the DUI incident arose from a business dinner and that they were not romantically involved, though the optics fed into intense public and online speculation.

Where they are now (as of 2025–2026)

  • After the RAV split, Ed Henry has continued to appear on other media platforms and conservative outlets, though he has not reclaimed a major daily network anchor slot comparable to his earlier Fox‑News‑era prominence.
  • Karyn Turk, who already had a long background in TV, radio, and entertainment‑focused commentary networks (including Red America Radio and YourNews), continues to host and comment across various right‑leaning and lifestyle platforms.
  • As of 2025 and into 2026, there is no indication that Henry and Turk have reconciled with RAV or resumed their former American Sunrise partnership; instead, they are viewed as having moved on to separate projects while remaining frequent subjects in conservative‑media and legal‑news coverage.
