Keith McNally originally criticized Lauren Sánchez as “revolting,” but later rolled back his comments, directing his criticism towards Jerry Seinfeld’s wife Jessica Seinfeld instead. He humorously mentioned being “stone cold sober” as the reason for his previous harsh commentary on Sánchez, who is engaged to Jeff Bezos. McNally stated that just because Sánchez may have had plastic surgery doesn’t make her “revolting,” adding that most revolting people he knows haven’t had any surgery.
McNally shared that about “90% of the 3,000 comments” he received on his initial post about the power couple were light and funny, with Jessica being the source of the “unfunniest” comment. He claimed Jessica quickly deleted her comment, which accused him of having a “twisted, pitiful, and hideous mind,” joking that she must have read his unreleased memoir. The owner of Balthazar restaurant seemed entertained by Jessica’s response and continued to engage with her in a humorous manner.
Jessica Seinfeld has not responded to McNally’s Instagram commentary, but when he first attacked Sánchez last month, she responded with strong messages meant to show she was unbothered. Sánchez shared a quote on her Instagram Story suggesting that people’s opinions of others have nothing to do with the person being judged. The former entertainment reporter chose to take the high road and did not engage in a public back-and-forth with McNally.
“The View” co-host Ana Navarro criticized McNally for his attack on Sánchez, calling it “counterintuitive.” She questioned why he would spend time posting pictures of someone he found revolting and suggested that Sánchez’s body and wealth should give her confidence not to care about others’ opinions. Navarro, who recently went through a weight-loss transformation, expressed admiration for Sánchez’s body and confidence, indicating that if she had the same attributes, she wouldn’t care about others’ opinions either.
In summary, Keith McNally’s initial criticism of Lauren Sánchez as “revolting” was later redirected towards Jerry Seinfeld’s wife Jessica Seinfeld in a humorous manner. McNally engaged with Jessica’s response, finding humor in her choice of words and playfully referencing his upcoming memoir. Sánchez chose not to engage in a public argument with McNally, instead sharing a quote suggesting that others’ opinions do not define a person. Ana Navarro criticized McNally for his comments, questioning why he would spend time criticizing someone he supposedly found revolting and praising Sánchez’s body and confidence. Ultimately, the situation involved a mix of humor, criticism, and self-assuredness.
