“Hey everyone! I wanted to let you know that I will not be on SNL next season,” she wrote on TikTok. “This was not my choice, I wish I was there getting to be with my friends. It truly felt like a second home. Thank you to everyone. I love you all.”

Troast joined SNL as a featured player for season 49. Her exit comes after one season with the sketch series. NBC announced the move on Tuesday, in conjunction with the hiring of three new featured players for season 50: Ashley Padilla, Emil Wakim and Jane Wickline.

Punkie Johnson and Molly Kearney had previously announced their departures from the show over the summer.

Troast also shared the news on Instagram, where she posted a longer statement. “I wish I was going back to be with all the amazing friends I made there, it truly felt like home. But it wasn’t in the cards,” she wrote.

“I wanna thank everyone who supported me. Especially everyone who came to see my tour this summer, wore costumes from characters and had such wonderful things to say. You mean everything to me. I hope I was able to spread joy and laughter, all love.”
