Matt Lauer’s wedding ultimatum as sweetheart waits for a proposal

The PR professional started dating the fallen reporter in 2019, two years after he was fired Today over sexual misconduct claims – which he denied – eventually causing his wife of more than two decades, Annette Roque, to dump him.

In February, one of his original accusers, former NBC assistant Brooke Nevils, released a tell-all that graphically detailed the five times Lauer allegedly sexually assaulted her.

Yet Abas has remained by his side. Most recently, she and her blacklisted boyfriend — who insists all his intimate encounters were consensual — were spotted walking around Sag Harbor, NY on March 23.

“Shamin sacrificed so much to support Matt, putting her entire reputation on the line and losing many friends who didn’t understand what the hell she saw in him,” the source said. ‘She sticks around because she sees the good in him, but also because he has promised her a future together. For Shamin that means marriage.’
