Ken Jennings is breaking his silence about the departure of his former “Jeopardy!” co-host, Mayim Bialik.

Bialik, who took over shared hosting duties for the beloved game show with Jennings after longtime host Alex Trebek died in 2020, announced earlier this month that she was leaving the show. Now, Jennings is sharing that the news took him by surprise.

“It took me off guard, because I loved working with my Mayim, and I’m gonna miss her,” he said in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I can’t speak to her decision-making process or her opinions about it.”

Ken Jennings addressed former fellow ‘Jeopardy!’ host Mayim Bialik‘s firing publicly for the first time in a story published by the Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday (December 26).

“It took me off guard, because I loved working with my Mayim and I’m gonna miss her,” Jennings said.

Ken Jennings Breaks Silence on Mayim Bialik’s “Jeopardy!” Exit — Best Life

After two years of sharing hosting duties with Ken Jennings, Mayim Bialik announced on Dec. 15 that she would no longer be hosting syndicated Jeopardy! The news came after a year in which Bialik was mostly away from the podium. In May, the actor stepped down from her hosting duties in solidarity with the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike, and she didn’t return after the series’ summer hiatus when filming resumed in August, or when the WGA strike ended on Sept. 27. Bialik and Jeopardy! both gave statements about the 48-year-old’s exit from the show, and now, Jennings has shared his thoughts on the matter, too.
