After Desus & Mero announced that their Showtime talk show was ending, reports have surfaced that their manager is to blame for the split.

Showtime late-night talk show Desus & Mero has ended after four seasons. Co-hosts and comedy duo Desus Nice (a.k.a. Daniel Baker) and the Kid Mero (a.k.a. Joel Martinez) confirmed the speculation on Sunday (July 18), but now reports have surfaced that their longtime manager Victor Lopez — who the two mentioned frequently over the years — is partially to blame.

According to Puck, Lopez allegedly bullied and harassed staff members of the show, prompting Showtime to ask that he no longer be invited to tapings. Two sources claimed that formal reports against Lopez have been made, although Showtime, reps for Desus and Mero along with Lopez could not be reached for comment.
