A few days ago it was reported that Matthew Morrison had been fired from SYTYCD for not following "production protocols".
A source close to the Fox reality show tells PEOPLE mag that Matthew Morrison was fired from the series "after he had an inappropriate relationship with a female contestant."
"They didn't have sex, but he reached out to her through flirty direct messages on social media," the source says. "She felt uncomfortable with his line of comments and went to producers, who then got Fox involved. He was fired after they did their own investigation."
The source adds that Morrison and the unidentified female contestant "never met up off-set."
"It was just messages that crossed the line," the source notes.
Morrison has been married to Renee Puente since 2014 and they have two kids together.
