Matt Lauer<\/strong><\/a> was spotted on a rare outing with girlfriend Shamin Abas<\/strong> five months after Brooke Nevils<\/strong> released her memoir including allegations against him.<\/p>\n

According to photos obtained by People<\/em><\/a> on Wednesday, July 8, Lauer, 68, and Abas, 56, spent the 4th of July weekend in the Hamptons. The couple attended Patriots owner Robert Kraft<\/strong>\u2019s annual holiday party.<\/p>\n

Lauer rocked a white button up shirt, tan blazer and sunglasses for the occasion. Abas, for her part, donned an orange tropical sundress. She completed the look with sunglasses and a statement necklace.<\/p>\n

The last time Lauer and Abas were seen in public was back in March during a night out in Sag Harbor, New York, per the outlet.<\/p>\n

The pair\u2019s recent outing comes five months after Nevils released her memoir, Unspeakable Things: Silence, Shame and the Stories We Choose to Believe<\/em>, which hit shelves in February. Nevils opened up about her experience with Lauer and her allegations against him in the book.<\/p>\n

Nevils, who worked as a producer on Today, filed a formal complaint against Lauer in 2017, which was at the height of the MeToo movement, accusing him of anally raping her in his hotel room in Russia while they covered the Olympics for NBC. Lauer was ultimately fired from Today<\/em>. (Nevils ended up taking a leave of absence from the morning show before exiting the role.)<\/p>\n

The disgraced news anchor denied the allegations in a 2019 letter. Lauer claimed that his experiences with Nevils were \u201ccompletely mutual and consensual.\u201d Nevils has since argued that she was too drunk to give consent to Lauer.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn that room, I wasn\u2019t myself anymore so much as a body suddenly at someone else\u2019s disposal,\u201d she wrote, adding that no \u201cdecent man pressures a terrified, decades-younger woman to do\u201d what Lauer allegedly did.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tMatt Lauer hosted the Today show for more than two decades before he was fired following allegations of sexual misconduct. \u201cThere are no words to express my sorrow and regret for the pain I have caused others by words and actions,\u201d Lauer told Us Weekly in a 2017 statement. \u201cTo the people I have hurt, [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Nevils added that she remembered going back to her own room and noticed in the mirror that she was visibly drunk describing her appearance as \u201cnot just wasted but wrecked.\u201d She claimed there was \u201cno way\u201d Lauer wouldn\u2019t have been able to notice that.<\/p>\n

Lauer has not publicly spoken out about Nevils\u2019 memoir revelations<\/a>.<\/p>\n
