That's because Winchester had his home raided in June in relation to a sexual misconduct investigation, according to the New York Post. On June 13, a search warrant was executed at Winchester's residence and electronics were seized after he was accused of making sexual advances during a massage, according to Fox 2 Detroit. 'I know that (the podcast) has looked a little differently over the last few weeks,' Stafford said on a recent episode. 'Summer is a lot for all of us. I've been travelling a bunch. Hank is dealing with some personal stuff. Bear with us there.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Winchester has been on the show a few times since the allegations, while Matthew Stafford, formerly of the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams — the team he won a Super Bowl and Super Bowl MVP with — has helped out on some. Winchester has been on administrative leave from WDIV Local 4 in Detroit since June 18 while the investigation unfolds. Reports have said he has been studying massage therapy. 'Hank has spent decades bringing truth to our community and fighting for our citizens,' read a statement from Winchester's attorney, Todd Flood, as reported by the New York Post. 'Because he holds a high-profile position in our community, that can at times generate false accusations. This investigation will end where it began — nowhere.'

It comes after two more Islanders are being booted off tonight Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DUMPED Love Island star Gio has opened up about someone labelled a 'game player' in the villa. Speaking to fellow former Love Islanders Amy Hart and Indiyah Polack on The Morning After podcast, Gio revealed that an Islander has been deemed cunning by more than just one person. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Gio has revealed that Shakira has the label of 'game player' in the villa Credit: X 4 The stunning brunette could let her casting vote 'go to her head' tonight says Gio Credit: Shutterstock Editorial The official Love Island account asked: "Does Shakira have a game plan? According to Giorgio, some people in the Villa think so." The 30-year-old was asked who he thought Shakira and Ty were going to choose tonight to get dumped from the ITV2 show. Speaking about Shakira, he revealed: 'It's funny because everyone's saying that she's playing a game, so maybe that could go to her head. Amy asked: "Everyone here on the outside or people in the villa?" Singleton Gio responded: 'A couple of people in the villa think that Shakira is playing a game. 'Ben, for a start…' The star didn't go on to divulge who else held the same harsh feelings towards her. Fans commented: "Well if Shakira is playing a game, her game is very interesting." A second added: "It's definitely not just Ben. He said only Ben's name as a cop out. There's more people. I think Meg and Tommy think she's playing a game." A third noted: "Shakira is incredibly bad at whatever game she's playing." Love Island fans demand 'get her out' as Meg has 'final cruel swipe' at rival Andrada "If Shakira was game playing, she would send Conor home but I think she will put herself first and get rid of Tommy," predicted a fourth. "He might, unfortunately, be right about Shakira," another mused. The day after Movie Night, Conor and Shakira headed to the firepit to discuss "uncharted territory". While Shakira and Ty went on to get voted the most compatible couple, she snuck off to the Hideaway for some privacy behind her partner's back. Shakira and Conor decide to revisit their unexplored connection and enjoy some alone time. Afterwards, when the pair returned to the garden, Ty watched on as Conor high-fived some of the other boys. Still single, Gio is among the older islanders on the show this series, bringing a more mature presence to the famous villa. He is the older brother of footballer Alessia Russo, who plays as a forward for Arsenal and England. She is the current holder of the FWA Women's Footballer of the Year award. Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX. 4 Gio said Ben isn't the only Islander who thinks Shakira is playing games Credit: X

Love Island stars slam Dejon over ‘worst exclusive proposal in show history' as they insist couple WON'T last
They hit out at him for failing to give her pancakes or waffles TERRACE FAIL Love Island stars slam Dejon over 'worst exclusive proposal in show history' as they insist couple WON'T last Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island's Dejon has been slammed by show stars for his half-hearted exclusive proposal to Meg. The villa lothario hatched an overly elaborate plot to get Meg onto the terrace for a private chat last week, using pal Conor as a decoy to lure her up there. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Dejon and Meg became exclusive on Friday Credit: ITV 4 Dejon read out a speech from his phone in which he spoke of his deep respect for meg Credit: ITV Once the pair were alone, he set about finally closing off their relationship, having come under fire for flirting with numerous bombshells. Dejon read out a heartfelt speech, in which he said his "respect for Meg was endless", sending Meg giddy. He told her "your smile brightens up any room that you enter" and "when I'm with you I feel like the happiest man in the world". Dejon's move came after Movie Night exposed his true behaviour and former Islanders Indiyah Polack and Amy Hart, as well as celeb super-fan Joe Baggs, felt he could have given her more. Speaking on Saturday's The Morning After podcast, Joe said: "It's gone on so long it lowkey doesn't mean anything anymore." Amy chipped in: "I think he should have asked her to be his girlfriend." Joe continued: "To make all that fuss with 'Conor, can you go and grab her' not even a pancake or waffle, a flower, a bow'. I thought it was pretty poor from my side." Indiyah said: "It was pretty low budget. I feel like that he could have asked Meg up there, he didn't need Conor to ask Meg up to the terrace." She then claimed that Dejon doesn't want to be Meg's boyfriend but was forced to make a gesture after exhausting all his options. Viewers felt the same, with one posting on X: "Dejon is so lazy couldn't even do a nice breakfast or a makeshift exclusive proposal like the previous years." Disgusted Love Island fans demand Dejon is axed over explosive row with girl on Movie Night Another said: "Blah, blah, blah! This is so textbook." Ultimately, the trio don't hold much hope for a happy future for them, stating, "the bar is on the floor". Prior to going exclusive, Meg was forced to watch Dejon's antics on a big screen. She was particularly shocked by his kiss with Andrada during a game of Truth or Dare in Casa Amor and the fact he called her "Babygirl". Meg fumed: "Babygirl? Baby f****** girl. That's crazy." But she ultimately cooled off and directed more of her anger towards Andrada. 4 Meg was left open-mouthed during Movie Night Credit: ITV

Who Is Hank Winchester? Emmy-Winning Reporter's Home Raided as Cops Probe Allegations He Sexually Abused Man During Massage
An Emmy-winning investigative TV reporter from Detroit — who co-hosts a podcast with the wife of a Los Angeles Rams player — is now being investigated himself, as his home was recently searched by authorities, who were investigating allegations that he made unwanted sexual advances toward a man during a massage. Hank Winchester, an investigative journalist for WDIV Local 4 — an NBC affiliate — and host of HelpMeHank, is married to Oakland County Circuit Judge Jacob Cunningham, according to his Instagram profile. The couple also has a young daughter. Beverly Hills Police Department along with the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, searched his Winchester home while executing a search warrant, according to Fox 2. Shocking Allegations The search was conducted as part of an investigation into claims that Winchester made unwanted sexual advances toward a man during a massage. According to sources who spoke with Fox 2, Winchester had recently been studying massage therapy. It remains unclear whether he was receiving the massage or acting as the masseur during the alleged incident. Winchester is also a co-host of The Morning After podcast alongside Kelly Stafford, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. The podcast sometimes includes well-known guests from major media outlets such as Access Hollywood and ESPN. Prior to joining the Los Angeles Rams, Matthew Stafford was the quarterback for the Detroit Lions from 2009 to 2020. Winchester shared that he had maintained a long-standing friendship with the Stafford family, as noted in a farewell message he wrote when they relocated to Los Angeles in 2021. After the "external investigation," was launched WDIV Vice President Bob Ellis confirmed that Winchester has been put on administrative leave. In a Scandalous Situation Winchester's attorney, Todd Flood, expressed confidence that the investigation will not result in any serious findings. "Hank has spent decades bringing truth to our community and fighting for our citizens. Because he holds a high-profile position in our community, that can at times generate false accusations. This investigation will end where it began – nowhere," he wrote. No charges have been filed at this time, and the investigation remains active. Winchester is not the only media personality to face such accusations in recent months. Back in April, a former Virginia weatherman was arrested after allegedly creating a sex tape and trying to blackmail his victims with it. In a separate incident last year, a TV news anchor from Louisiana stepped down after he was caught sending explicit messages to someone he believed was a 15-year-old girl — who was actually part of a vigilante group known as the "predator hunters."
