SATURDAY Night Live star Chloe Troast has confirmed that she’s not returning to the show, sharing the announcement on social media.
The comic confirmed her exit and shared the shocking reason for it on her Instagram Story.
After Deadline reported that Chloe, 27, was leaving SNL to make room for three new additions, she shared a statement of her own.
“Hey all I was going to wait to post but Deadline beat me to it,” she began.
“Unfortunately I was not asked back to SNL this season. I wish I was going back to be with all the amazing friends I made there, it truly felt like home.”
Chloe went on, “But it wasn’t in the cards. I wanna thank everyone who supported me. Especially everyone who came to see my tour this summer, wore costumes from characters and had such wonderful things to say.
“You mean everything to me. I hope I was able to spread joy and laughter, all love. Onwards and upwards.”
FRESH FACES
The outlet reported that three new stars are joining the cast.
Ashley previously appeared on an episode of HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm and is a member of the Main Company in The Groundlings.
