De Pablo explained that her departure in 2013 was not an easy choice but one she felt was necessary to stay true to Ziva\u2019s journey. \u201cI didn\u2019t feel that the storyline they had planned for her was respectful or reflective of who Ziva was,\u201d she shared, echoing sentiments fans have speculated about for years. Her comments confirmed that she prioritized creative integrity over staying in a role that didn\u2019t align with her values.<\/p>\n

The actress also acknowledged the overwhelming fan support she\u2019s received since leaving. \u201cI am so grateful for the love fans continue to show me,\u201d she said. De Pablo\u2019s return in a brief storyline arc in 2019 felt like a gift to viewers who had long awaited Ziva\u2019s return and brought closure to the beloved character.<\/p>\n

Her candid revelation sheds new light on her decision, reinforcing why she remains such a respected figure among NCIS fans.
