Paige Shiver Says Ex-Michigan Coach Sherrone Moore Impregnated Her in Coercive Workplace Relationship

Her televised account renews scrutiny of Michigan's oversight of staff protections.

Overview

  • Shiver, 32, gave her first interview Friday on ABC’s Good Morning America, calling the years-long affair an “open secret” inside Michigan athletics.
  • She said she became pregnant in 2022 and ended the pregnancy on doctors’ advice because she has Pompe disease, a rare muscle disorder.
  • Shiver described Moore as controlling her emotions and career and said he used his authority to keep her in the relationship.
  • Michigan fired Moore on Dec. 10 after she disclosed the relationship, and hours later he entered her apartment and threatened self-harm before police arrested him.
  • A felony count was dropped in a plea deal, and on April 14 he received 18 months’ probation, while the university says it acted promptly as Shiver’s lawyers allege systemic failures and push for accountability.
