A strong mazel tov may be in order for MSNBC “Morning Joe” co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, who appear to finally be dishing details about their off-air romance.

The New York Post‘s “Page Six” gossip column reported last year that their relationship was “the worst kept-secret in TV.”

Now, with their previous marriages in rearview mirror, the pair is broaching the delicate topic of their assumed romantic relationship.

Yup, it’s true. In an upcoming issue of The Hollywood Reporter, Scar-Brz finally went there.

“We have a crackling on-air chemistry, and a crackling off-air chemistry, too,” Scarborough told THR.

When pushed for more detail, Brzezinski was cagey.”That’s good,” she said, with Scarborough adding, “I think that pretty much says it, doesn’t it?”

This wasn’t enough, obviously. But at least it’s more than the lame TV Newser story from last July, which presented the weakest attempt at getting an answer to the reality of their relationship.

“Look, I don’t really want to talk about my personal life,” Brzezinski told the interviewer.

In September, the duo hung out after hours at a bar in New York, where Scarborough performed with his band.

Despite discussing their “crackling chemistry,” don’t expect the couple to start smooching on air anytime soon or combine their respective children from their previous marriages. Scarborough has been married twice before and has four children; Brzezinski just once to journalist James Hoffer, with whom she has two daughters.

The Mirror wrote Scarborough and asked a single question: “Are you going to marry Mika?” I’ll keep you posted if he responds.

Scarborough and his most recent ex-wife, Susan Waren, divorced in 2013. They had been married for 10 years. He was married to Melanie Hinton from 1986 to 1999. Brzezinski and her ex split last June. They were married for 23 years.

In late September, RadarOnline reported that Brzezinski purchased a new home in Westchester, New York for $1.6 million.

While THR story did not discuss their children, they went into excruciating detail about how their pets get along.

Scarborough has a dog, Scout, and a cat, Oliver Meatball, who is apparently a handful of an animal who brashly parades himself on the kitchen counter, which Brzezinski finds “gross.”

Brzezinski, meanwhile, has two pooches, Hobson and Cajun, two cats, (Emma and Elle) and three chickens that she has discussed on air.

Brzezinski recently made a big deal of Scarborough’s 54th birthday on air and gifted her co-host, er, boyfriend, with fresh eggs from her chickens. She also heavily flirted with him, asking him what he did for his birthday.

Scarborough looked uncomfortable and didn’t respond to her question.

But later in the program he seemed to take the whole thing well even after a dancing bear waltzed onto the set with a cake and began tickling him.

The most suggestive part of the THR story is nothing that was written, but rather a photograph of the pair with Brzezinski standing boldly in front of Scarborough and Scarborough holding the ends of what appears to be a necktie behind her.

He’s already wearing a tie, so it’s hard to tell what the message is there.

But the whole thing looks a little 50 Shades of Grey/Lifetime’s “My Crazy Ex.” 

A caption might be, “All tied up.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
