The Try Guys were a group of four men who created content on YouTube, surrounding the main topic of gaining experiences – until four became three. On Sept. 27, the Try Guys had officially announced Ned Fulmer’s leave from the group due to extramarital affairs in the workplace.  

An anonymous user posted on their Instagram story a conversation with a fan who caught Ned Fulmer and Alexandria Herring, an Associate Producer of the Try Guys,  kissing at the Niagara Club in New York City. The fan provided photo and video evidence to prove their claims. 

Earlier in September, rumors had already sparked of Fulmer cheating on Ariel Fulmer with one of his employees. Discussions were made on the subject on Twitter and subreddits before the official announcement. In Fulmer’s statement on the situation, he firmly confirms the rumors about him cheating on his wife with Herring. 

“Family should have always been my priority, but I lost focus and had a consensual workplace relationship,” Fulmer said. “The only thing that matters right now is my marriage and my children.”

Herring is an employee of the Try Guys and also appears in the spinoff show “Food Babies” on the Try Guys YouTube channel. During the midst of seeing Fulmer out in public, Herring has been engaged to Will Thayer – her boyfriend of 10 years – since May of 2021. It is unclear whether or not Alexandria and Thayer are still engaged or together after this situation has been revealed to the public.
