“I will always cherish my time on The Rookie, but couldn’t be more excited for what the future has in store,” Valentino wrote in an Instagram story on Friday. “I adore the friends and relationships made while being there. It was such an amazing opportunity, and I feel so lucky to have had the last three seasons. Thank you to the best fans in the world. I know I don’t talk much, but I appreciate you all so much. You never know who may pop back up in the Mid-Wilshire precinct. Until then, 7 Adam 19, this is Officer Thorsen, over and out!”

I see alot of deflection and distraction. He speaks about his future in a plain and generic way. Nothing specific. Then goes on how he will missing those he acted with. He says nothing about why he left. There's alot more to this than he is telling.

I want to hear the real reason why he's not coming back and why it's suddenly announced.

There's something very off about this.

I think something is going on behind the scenes that's being covered up.
