Fox Sports executive vice president Charlie Dixon, former FS1 host Skip Bayless, and current FS1 host Joy Taylor are all mentioned in a workplace misconduct lawsuit by an ex-hairstylist.

She went on to say that Bayless would press his body against hers and press against her b*easts while giving “lingering hugs and kisses on the cheek.”
She claims that Joy Taylor instructed her to “get over it” after she told him about the incident.
Even though those accusations were startling, Joy Taylor was brought up frequently and she used to sleep with Joy Taylor in exchange for her promotion as per the ex-Fox Sports hairstylist.
Before landing her major role as the host and moderator of Undisputed, Faraji alleges that Joy Taylor engaged in a s*xual relationship with Charlie Dixon, the Fox executive responsible for content decisions and ultimately contributed to the breakdown of her marriage shortly after tying the knot. She has also claimed that FS1 host Joy slept with Emmanuel Acho in a bid to secure promotion at Fox Sports.

Let’s examine Taylor’s previous relationships as the accusations are being investigated.
Joy Taylor who was engaged to former NBA guard Earl Watson following divorce from her first husband, had her engagement broken off after Watson learned of her infidelity as per the lawsuit by Faraji. Subsequently, Dixon allegedly paid for the couple’s wedding deposits in exchange for Watson’s silence.
“After learning of Ms. Taylor and Mr. Dixon’s sexual relationship, Ms. Taylor’s then-fiancé broke off the engagement and threatened to go public with all that he knew. On information and belief, Mr. Dixon paid for the wedding deposits in an informal exchange for her fiancé’s silence.”
Joy Taylor, who is presently unmarried and single, was married to Richard Gianotti in 2016. The marriage ended in divorce in 2017. Joy Taylor announced her engagement to NBA player-turned-coach Earl Watson in 2018, which lasted until 2019 before they decided to split up, around a year after her divorce.
Joy who earns $148,000 p/a has a net worth of $1 million.
Joy Taylor talked about experiencing domestic violence on a 2017 episode of Undisputed, an American sports talk show that Fox Sports 1 airs.
When asked what kind of men she would like to date in a podcast, Taylor said, “I don’t want to date a man that doesn’t have female friendships. I don’t want to date a man who gets input from other men and who has all women in two categories— your mother or your aunties or someone I want to sleep with. You have to have a broader spectrum on women and their value in your life if you are going to be with me.”
