Chris Hansen Caught Cheating On Wife By Hidden Camera: 'To Catch A Predator' Host Nailed: Report

UPDATE BELOW

Looks like the sting tactic that made Chris Hansen famous may have come back to bite him -- big time.

The National Enquirer is reporting that they've caught the "To Catch A Predator" host cheating on his wife with Kristyn Caddell, a Florida NBC affiliate news reporter twenty one years his junior, with a hidden camera. Hansen is married with two children and lives in Connecticut.

The Enquirer says that they have footage of Hansen out with Caddell, having dinner at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Manalapan, Florida, and then returning for the night to her Palm Beach apartment. The host has been spending time in Florida investigating the disappearance of James 'Jimmy T' Trindade, the Enquirer reports (via the Daily Mail).

"To Catch A Predator," a Dateline series, features Hansen and an advocacy organization called Perverted Justice posing as younger women and communicating with older men online, and then catching would-be sex offenders at a location that they and the almost-offender agreed upon.

You guys need to leave Chris alone! He has done so much good in the world by exposing peds, he deserves to have some young tang. Let him do his thing. He is the man. His wife can get over it and be glad she has a decent man.

Um, what "decent man" cheats on his wife? And what, his cheating is somehow okay just because she was of age? It may not be illegal, but it IS immoral, and wrong, for so many reasons. Your attitude, sir, is the reason good women can't find a good man.

I don't actually have anything against good men- I happen to be one. You will always be single and naive, Alana. Save your self-righteous opinions for your sunday school class, they have no place online. He was probably set up by his no-good wife, and I believe he is innocent. But even if he did have relations with that young lady at least it's not immoral. No offense, but please watch your mouth.

National Enquirer is a tabloid. This might not have even happened. Even if it did, so what? Adultery & pedophilia are 2 very different things.

[Alana Asha]

And both are wrong. So what do you mean, "so what"? So you're fine when your boyfriend or fiancee or husband cheats on you?

I've met Mrs Hansen and not only is she beautiful she is also very kind and giving .Shame on Chris Hansen and Krystin Caddell for the pain they've caused.Even if they're able to get past it this family will never be the same.Hope it was worth the cost.

Cheating on your wife is certainly not the same as pedophilia. But if you are going to make your living uncovering immorality, be prepared.

It's a little like a cop who parks illegally. It's not a huge crime, but you expect better.

What goes around comes around? What did he do to the men on the show he does? He catches pedophiles! Not cheaters. God. It's legal to cheat.

He's not a hypocrite just because he's seeing a woman other than his wife. People who are equating marital infidelity with solicitations of minors for sex are f***ed in the head. He was caught on camera, big effing deal. That's where the similarity between him and his targets ends. I'm no fan of him or his show, but the prurient scolding for people having affairs is idiotic. Half of marriages end up in divorce. Follow any man pushing 50 and it's even money you'll catch him doing something he's lying about. Welcome to America.

Oh, the irony. Hoisted on his own petard.

Not that I support perverts, but he's a little too smarmy for my taste.

Really? I always liked him, for some reason. But whenever I would watch that show I always thought to myself, God help him if he has any skeletons of a certain nature in his closet.
