Julie Chen Bids Emotional Farewell to the Talk: ‘I Need To Spend More Time at Home’

EXCERPT: 

CHEN: "I have been at the The Talk since the day it started nine years ago and the cast, crew and staff have become family to me over the years. But right now, I need to spend more time at home with my husband and our young son. So I have decided to leave The Talk. I want to thank everyone at the show for the wonderful years together. I will always, always cherish the memories we shared. Most important, I want to thank you, the viewers, for allowing me into your home every day. It was a privilege that I will forever be grateful for."
