Ethan Klein says he's giving up his financial interests in his joint businesses with Hila Klein, just days after she accused him of an affair that lasted more than six months. The H3 Podcast host put up an Instagram Story on October 23, calling it “one final comment,” and said he's working with Hila to remove his ownership stakes. He also asked people to respect his family's privacy and stop contacting them for comments. Hila had publicly described the alleged affair and how the relationship fell apart before this, and the H3 Podcast crew has since addressed the fallout as well.

Ethan Klein Says He Is Giving Up His Financial Stakes in H3 Podcast and Other Joint Businesses

The Story was mostly about what happens to the business side now. Ethan said he's working to take his ownership and financial stakes out of their podcasts, Teddy Fresh, Teddy Glow and any joint venture that could financially benefit him.

“All of your support will go directly to Hila and the crew,” Ethan wrote, so the point was that people could back them without worrying about enriching him. 

He had kind words for the people on the show too, calling them “the most talented, creative, hilarious and all around great people.” 

Ethan said he believed the crew would make an “awesome show.” But for all he said, he never gave a date for when the transfer of financial interests would happen.

Another chunk of the Story was really about keeping his family out of it. Ethan acknowledged people wanted to hear from him, but he asked them not to reach out to his relatives to track him down or get comments.

“They have nothing to do with this and share in your outrage and disappointment,” he wrote. He closed that message by thanking people for respecting his request.

Hila's own Instagram statement, also posted October 23, went through how she got suspicious, questioned Ethan and eventually decided he had been lying to her. She alleged he admitted to an affair lasting more than six months, and said she wasn't sure she knew the full extent of it.

The H3 Podcast's future got hit as well. The production team said it won't keep working with Ethan involved or profit from his participation, and the show was put on indefinite hiatus. The crew voiced support for Hila and said they still had a lot to work through.
