“I’ve had a truly incredible run as host of ‘The Bachelor’ franchise and now I’m excited to start a new chapter. I’m so grateful to Bachelor Nation for all of the memories we’ve made together. While my two-decade journey is wrapping up, the friendships I’ve made will last a lifetime,” Harrison wrote.
According to Deadline’s report, Harrison’s exit contract from the franchise included an “8-figure payoff,” as well as some type of non-disclosure agreement. Further details about the package were not made available. At this time, it’s also unclear if Harrison quit or if he was fired by ABC.
