Carolyn Hughes was a sports reporter for FSN West in Los Angeles, where she anchored the “Dodger Dugout.” Any professional success she may have had up to that point was wiped away when she was suspended from her position for having an affair with Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Derek Lowe.
This wouldn’t have been a big media story under normal circumstances, but seeing as both Hughes and Lowe were married at the time of their affair, it blew up pretty quickly.
Derek Lowe filed for divorce from his wife shortly after the affair became public, and Hughes’ husband also filed for divorce.
In 2007, Lowe said that the relationship with his wife was already over when he started seeing Hughes. He said, “No one in their right mind would leave their family for a fling.”
