Shemar Moore has officially bid farewell to his beloved role as FBI agent Derek Morgan on Criminal Minds after 11 seasons.
While fans of the CBS crime drama are heartbroken over the surprising news, Moore insisted that his exit was "not goodbye" in a sit-down interview with ET on Thursday.
On Wednesday night's episode, titled "A Beautiful Disaster," Derek traded in his FBI badge to focus on his home life with wife Savannah Hayes (Rochelle Aytes) and their newborn son, Hank Spencer Morgan.
"I'm not leaving to go be a big star and try to make a lot of money," the 45-year-old actor explained to ET. "I mean, all that stuff is a part of the business and part of the journey and the dream, [but] right now I'm just leaving to take a breath."
"There's things I want to do," he continued. "I want to travel. I want to walk my dogs more."
Much like his character, Moore told ET that he plans to use this well-deserved break by focusing on his personal life, including the search for a lucky lady.
