Vanessa Lachey is still coming to terms with the cancellation of her CBS show, “NCIS: Hawai’i.”
The actress, who stars in the crime drama, took to Instagram on Saturday to share her feelings about the show’s end.
“Gutted, confused, blindsided,” she wrote in a text overlay on her Instagram Story. “Processing this news and still being present with my family. I love you all!”
She ended her message with a heartfelt “Mahalo Nui Loa” to her fans.
CBS decided to cancel “NCIS: Hawai’i” after three seasons, with the news breaking shortly before the Season 3 finale set to air on May 6.
Lachey, the first female lead in an “NCIS” franchise, plays special agent Jane Tennant. Earlier this month, she celebrated her groundbreaking role on Instagram, expressing gratitude to CBS and Paramount: “Mahalo to CBS & Paramount for believing in me and this groundbreaking show. Here’s to all the incredible people who made it happen! I love my job!”
Last week, CBS announced that the “NCIS” universe had reached a milestone of 1,000 combined episodes.
