W0W! Pauley Perrette at 54yo Shows 0ff More Than She Wanted T0..

In 2018, actress Pauley Perrette made her exit from NCIS, leaving behind her beloved character, Abby Sciuto. After 15 seasons on the show, her sudden departure raised speculation among fans about the true reasons for her exit. Many wondered if co-star Mark Harmon had played a role in her decision.

Following her departure, rumors circulated about what led to her leaving the hit drama. Pauley initially remained silent to protect her colleagues and the show’s production. However, after seeing the spread of misinformation, she took to social media to set the record straight. In a candid post, Pauley revealed that a powerful “machine” was behind the false stories about her. She stated, “There is a ‘machine’ keeping me silent, and feeding FALSE stories about me. A very rich, very powerful publicity ‘machine’. No morals, no obligation to truth, and I’m just left here, reading the lies, trying to protect my crew. Trying to remain calm. He did it.”

In another post, Pauley opened up about the difficulties she faced while on NCIS, including multiple instances of physical assault. She shared her personal experience of workplace bullying, emphasizing the importance of safety in any work environment. “Stay safe. Nothing is worth your safety. Tell someone,” she urged her followers.

The actress’s tweets drew attention from CBS Television Studios, who issued a statement acknowledging that Pauley had raised a workplace concern over a year ago. The statement reassured the public that they had taken the matter seriously and worked with Pauley to find a resolution, reinforcing their commitment to providing a safe environment on all their shows.

Despite these efforts, the tension between Pauley and Mark Harmon appeared to persist. In 2019, Pauley posted another message on social media, which further hinted at the ongoing issues with her former co-star. She wrote, “NO I AM NOT COMING BACK! EVER! (Please stop asking?) I am terrified of Harmon and him attacking me. I have nightmares about it. I have a new show that is SAFE AND HAPPY! You’ll love it! #HappyPlace Love y’all!” This message seemed to confirm that their feud had solidified, and Pauley emphasized her need to work in a safer, more positive environment.

Mark Harmon has yet to publicly address the accusations or provide any comments regarding the ongoing feud.

While Pauley has moved on to new projects, her time on NCIS and the dramatic circumstances surrounding her departure continue to capture attention. Fans of the show and Pauley’s character, Abby Sciuto, will likely continue to remember the actress fondly, despite the tension that led to her exit.
