### Pauley Perrette: Life After Acting
Since the cancellation of her series “Broke” in 2020, Pauley Perrette has maintained a low acting profile. In fact, she boldly announced her retirement from the business that same year, declaring her new focus on life’s simpler pleasures.
In a statement posted to her social media account in October 2020, Perrette shared her excitement about retirement, stating, “I finally and happily retired! And this is what I was looking forward to. My rules in life now are ‘if my rescue dogs don’t care, it’s cool! I only answer to God and animals and plants now. WOOT!!!” She further elaborated in a July 2020 Tweet, mentioning her retirement plans after her stint on “NCIS” and her pride in her final project, “Broke.”
Despite bidding farewell to acting, Perrette remains active in charity functions and red carpet events. Notably, she attended a charity event for the Los Angeles LGBT center in March, demonstrating her ongoing support for important causes. While her absence from the screen may be felt by fans of “NCIS,” Perrette seems to be relishing every moment of her post-acting life.
