Don Lemon, who, for the moment, is still co-anchor of CNN This Morning, is reportedly “sulking” around the CNN studio and “acting like he’s the victim.”
Sources tell RadarOnline that weeks after Lemon’s remarks about Nikki Haley being “past her prime,” tensions still haven’t improved between him and co-anchors Poppy Harlow and Kaitlin Collins.
Don Lemon: "Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime. Sorry, when a woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s, and 30s, and maybe 40s…"

Another insider revealed that “Poppy and Kaitlin have buddied up and the bond between them is stronger than ever.”
