Former University of Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore was fired, then arrested, after rumors of an “inappropriate” affair with a staff member surfaced. Amid the viral rumors, the coach’s former executive assistant, Paige Shiver, found herself thrown into the public eye.
“U-M head football coach Sherrone Moore has been terminated, with cause, effective immediately,” Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel said in a statement in December 2025. “Following a University investigation, credible evidence was found that Coach Moore engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and U-M maintains zero tolerance for such behavior.”
The University of Michigan did not name Shiver in its firing of Moore. She was also not named in Moore’s arrest. However, four months later, Shiver spoke out about the situation during an April 2026 Good Morning America interview.

Paige Shiver Battled a Glycogen Disorder Called Pompe Disease
Shiver opened up about her rare genetic disorder, known as Pompe Disease, in her Chicago Bears profile in 2016. The illness makes it difficult for the body to break down glycogen, which can cause a build-up in the muscle cells and lead to potential heart issues and muscle damage, according to multiple outlets, including the National Organization for Rare Disorders.
The Bears’ website described her as “an active college student” at the time, who used to “go on 30-minute runs, take cycling classes and lift weights virtually every day without getting tired.”
But in 2015, while a junior at Purdue, Shiver felt “exhausted” with pain “throughout her body.”
“I would go for a run and couldn’t run for more than 5 minutes because my lungs started getting affected,” the then-22-year-old said, according to the Bears’ site. “It was really hard to catch my breath and my legs felt really heavy, like I could barely lift them up.”
During her April 2026 GMA interview, Shiver revealed that her Pompe disease affected her pregnancy during her affair with Moore. Doctors advised her to terminate the pregnancy for her safety.
“Multiple doctors and experts told me that it wouldn’t be right or healthy for me to keep the baby,” she said.
