Once upon a time, Ned Fulmer was one-fourth of The Try Guys. The Try Guys started as a content sensation at Buzzfeed before Ned, Zach Kornfeld, Keith Habersberger, and Eugene Lee Yang took their try videos onto their own YouTube channel. Together, the four business partners and friends formed 2nd Try LLC, a company that controlled all The Try Guys’ content and additional projects. Things were going exceedingly well. The foursome expanded their business, added employees, and saw astronomical growth in popularity. Then, Ned Fulmer, who used his marriage as a personality trait, was caught cheating. He left 2nd Try LLC, but did he leave the lives of Eugene, Zach, and Keith, too? It looks like it.

Since his ousting, Fulmer has gone dark on the internet, but life has moved on for the try guys, particularly Zach. Now, the company had something good to celebrate. Zach Kornfeld is officially a married man.

With an Oct. 8 Saturday Night Live sketch, the Try Guys — the viral video quartet who’ve racked up billions of views trying everything from makeup to jousting — reached a level of mainstream visibility not even they could have dreamed of.
Unfortunately, the sketch mocked the alleged cheating scandal that led to the ousting of member Ned Fulmer — not exactly the kind of celebrity the group probably had envisioned when they broke away from BuzzFeed, where they got their start in 2014, to form their own digital content factory in 2018.
“I’m trying to understand why this story is such a scandal,” asks a bewildered CNN anchor played in the sketch by SNL‘s Ego Nwodim. “Was this affair non-consensual? … The full story is your friend had a side chick and you had to fire him?”
The sketch has drawn criticism for making light of the situation.

"Saturday Night Live" is facing backlash due to a Try Guys parody sketch that aired during the Oct. 8 episode hosted by Brendan Gleeson. The skit skewered a recent video the guys - Eugene Lee Yang, Zach Kornfeld, and Keith Habersberger - released explaining their decision to fire their fourth member, Ned Fulmer, after it was revealed that he had a workplace affair. While the sketch makes light of the trio's response to their friend and coworker's infidelity, Twitter users are calling out the NBC series for taking aim at the remaining Try Guys rather than Fulmer. (Popsugar reached out to the Try Guys' representatives for comment on the sketch but did not receive an immediate response.)
In the skit, Bowen Yang, Mikey Day, and Andrew Dismukes play Yang, Kornfeld, and Habersberger, who appear in a breaking-news segment on CNN hosted by Gleeson, who appears as a reporter well-versed in the drama.

Even if you don't follow The Try Guys' media content, chances are you've probably heard their name lately.. On Sept. 27, the popular YouTube group announced that one of its four members, Ned Fulmer, would no longer be working with the content creators, following reports of an extramarital affair.
The Try Guys initially addressed the news with a joint statement on social media, officially declaring Ned's departure from the brand following a "thorough internal review." The statement read, "We do not see a path forward together. We thank you for your support as we navigate this change." Since then, both Ned and his wife, Ariel Fulmer, have spoken out on the matter.

Two of the three remaining Try Guys took to their TryPods podcast today to explain, according to member Keith Habersberger, “What we emotionally went through…our side of the experience for the last month.”
That experience was the very public removal of longtime member Ned Fulmer after they discovered that Fulmer, who is married, had an affair with an unnamed staffer. Further complicating things was the fact that his wife, Ariel Fulmer, hosts a podcast called You Can Sit With Us with the other members’ wives.
Titled “Ok, let’s talk about it,” today’s podcast featured Habersberger and Zach Kornfeld detailing just how overwhelming the news and reaction was for them as well as the decision not to replace Fulmer.
“We processed this almost like a trauma,” Kornfeld explained. “It really rocked our word, but also the ramifications were so clear. I don’t think that I really ever stopped to emotionally process it.

“Ned Fulmer is no longer working with the Try Guys.” With their opening sentence, the stunt Youtube group’s first video since dropping former cohost Fulmer from their roster set a serious tone: one widely different from their usual comedy-driven content. In a five-minute video titled “What Happened,” posted late Monday night, remaining members Eugene Lee Yang, Zach Kornfeld, and Keith Habersberger gave a quick, decisive, and extremely genuine-sounding statement of facts and their plans for going forward — a move that had fans and casual observers alike telling Hr departments...

“This is not who we are, and we took this very seriously,” said Try Guys member Eugene Lee Yang in a video the group posted today addressing the removal of longtime member Ned Fulmer. Yang, along with remaining members Keith Habersberger and Zach Kornfeld confirmed what fans had suspected: Fulmer, who is married, had an affair with an unnamed staffer.
“Ned had engaged in conduct unbecoming of our team,” said Habersberger.
The result is that, to the extent possible, Fulmer’s presence in the group’s videos is being erased, both going forward and retrospectively.
“There are several videos that we’ve deemed as fully unreleasable. You will never see them and that’s due to his involvement,” revealed Kornfeld.
But there are also a few upcoming videos that are sponsored and will include the former member, ostensibly due to contractual obligations.

Although Ned Fulmer is looking to move forward, some fans can't help but look back at his past. Earlier this week, the content creator, who was part of the popular YouTube group The Try Guys, was confirmed to be "no longer working" with his fellow members after allegations surfaced that he cheated on his wife, Ariel Fulmer, with an individual from the workplace. Shortly after the group shared their statement, Ned issued an apology, in which he admitted to cheating on Sept. 27. Amid him speaking out, a past interview done with Cosmopolitan resurfaced online. In the 2017 sit-down with fellow Try Guy Zach Kornfeld, Ned—who was married for five...
