Pauley Perrette’s Tearful Reaction to Mark Harmon’s Shocking Confession – You Won’t Believe What He Revealed!

Polly Perrette’s departure from NCIS in 2018 left fans in shock, officially attributed to her character resigning after an assassination attempt. However, reports indicate that a significant factor behind the scenes was a clash with series lead Mark Harmon. Allegedly, the tension began in 2016 when Harmon’s dog bit a crew member. In Perrette’s final episode, she and Harmon did not share the screen, and her exit was creatively handled with Abby bidding farewell through a letter. Perrette’s cryptic tweets after leaving hinted at workplace issues, later confirmed by CBS addressing her concerns.

Despite fans’ hopes, Perrette declared on Twitter in 2019 that she would never return to NCIS. Having retired from acting in 2020, a comeback to the long-running series seems unlikely. The backstage drama adds to a history of challenges on the NCIS set, including Sasha Alexander’s exit due to demanding schedules during the show’s second season.
