Troubled startup Magic Leap loses another executive

Magic Leap's head of PR and communications, Andy Fouche, is leaving the seemingly troubled startup. 

His departure was announced the week after a bombshell report in the Information said that the secretive Dania Beach, Florida-based startup may have been exaggerating its technology in demo videos and that it has generally oversold its progress toward a pair of smart glasses. 

Fouche will join Android inventor Andy Rubin's new stealth startup, he announced in a tweet. 

 

 By our count, Fouche is at least the fourth VP-or-higher level executive to leave Magic Leap in 2016.

• Gary Bradski, Senior Vice President of Advanced Perception and Intelligence, and founder of Magic Leap's first West Coast office, left Magic Leap in early 2016 to found a now-defunct robotics startup. 
• Adrian Kaehler, VP of Technology Solutions, left along with Bradski. The two later sued Magic Leap for wrongful termination. 
• Brian Wallace, chief marketing officer, left in October.
• And now Fouche, who was the head of communications. 

Magic Leap and Fouche did not immediately return a request for more information.
