Fox News
"The Talk" co-host Elaine Welteroth has announced that she will not return to CBS' popular daytime talk show.
"It is an absolute honor for anyone, but especially a young Black woman, to occupy space on-air where our perspectives are largely underrepresented," she said in a statement obtained by Fox News. "It was gratifying to be able to show up as my authentic self in front of a live national audience every day in a world as divided as ours and to stay true to myself and what I stand for." The star, 34, said that she joined "The Talk" in order to "join a diverse cast in helping to bridge some of the divides in our world through conversation and empathy."More Related News
