Australian reporter Michael Rowland of the ABCannounced his exit from the network after nearly 40 years, as he leaves to care for his sick wife.
"After almost four decades in the grinding environment of daily news and current affairs, and having watched luck run out for so many people, I’ve decided now is a good time to step away," Rowland said in an on-air statement Monday morning, according to Daily Mail. "My wife, Nikki, who you all know, has been unwell over the last year or so, and I'm wanting to spend more time with her and family and move at a gentler pace."
Rowland—who joined the network in 1987 at just 18 years old—added that it was "not an easy decision," but the right one for him and his family.
"It's bittersweet. I know this is the right decision for me, my family and my life going forward. But I'll miss the viewers. I still get a wonderful reception when I travel around Australia," he continued.
The ABC reporter later clarified via social media that his wife is not "at death's door."
While he did not specify her apparent illness, Rowland added, "Nicki has been unwell over the last year or so but is well and truly bouncing back."
