AceShowbiz - Vanessa Lachey (Vanessa Minnillo) has broken her silence after CBS announced that "NCIS: Hawai'i" was canceled after 3 seasons. The actress, who played Special Agent in Charge Jane Tennant on the series, took to Instagram to share that she's gutted by the decision.
"Gutted, confused, blindsided," Vanessa, who made history by being the first female lead who is also a woman of color in the "NCIS" franchise, wrote on her Instagram Stories on Saturday, April 27. "Grateful, confident, beloved fans!"
The star went on to say, "Processing this news and still being present with my family. I love you all! Maholo Nui Loa."
She later posted a selfie with her young daughter as she wore Mickey ears with glittery letters NCIS glued to them. "Trying to explain this news to my daughter… and she makes me Mickey ears so I can 'smile,' " so the actress wrote in the caption. "This decision was bigger than a TV show."
Other cast members also took to their respective social media accounts to comment on the cancellation. Tori Anderson, who portrayed FBI agent Kate Whistler, wrote on X Friday, "Having a really hard time processing this one." She added, "Thank you to our incredible crew who made every single day feel like I was living a dream."
"I want to say thank you to all the fans. My heart breaks for you as well," she continued, before concluding, "This is a huge loss for representation. Love you all so much."
Meanwhile, Jason Antoon said, "This business is brutal and makes no sense. But we had soooo much fun. Love you all and mahalo." Jason played cyber intelligence specialist Ernie on the series.
Castmate Noah Mills, on the other hand, shared a photograph of a Hawaiian sunset as writing, "It was soooo much damn fun while it lasted!" He added, "I will miss so many and so much about making this show.
