Natalie Morales announced on Friday that she's quitting "Access Hollywood" and "Access Live" on NBC after 3 years of co-hosting both entertainment news shows. She'll continue, however, to work for NBC News as West Coast anchor for the "Today Show" and also a corresponent for the network's "Dateline."
In a memo she sent to staffers of "Access", she wrote:
To my dear Access family:
And I do mean family! I have had a wonderful 3 years here with you and will treasure the memories and good times! Thank you for welcoming me with open arms and for always bringing your A-game. I have so much to be grateful for and can’t name all of you… but I do have to especially thank Kit, Scott, Sibley and Liliana for making it always a fun day “at work.” And thanks to our incredible producers, crew, assistants, wardrobe, hair and makeup teams.. I mean truly, I have a long list and hope to thank you each personally. Keep being the little engine that could!
