Nev Schulman has some particularly wise heels to fill with his next onscreen partner. On Thursday, Catfish: The TV Show co-host Kamie Crawford announced her exit from the MTV reality series with a statement on social media, nearly six years after tracking down her first ‘catfish’ with Schulman. “After six years of living my absolute dream working on Catfish – one of the most iconic shows in television history, it is with a heavy heart and much consideration that I have decided to move on to my next adventure,” started Crawford in the statement.

She joined the show with Season 7 in 2018 after being one of several to guest host alongside Schulman, following the departure of Max Joseph, who co-hosted Catfish since it premiered in 2012. “When I got an email in 2018 from an absolute stranger at Catfish‘s production department asking if I wanted to guest co-host two episodes of one of my favorite shows of all time, I never would’ve imagined the life, love memories and worldwide support that it would’ve awarded me,” wrote Crawford in part. “I am so grateful for every single moment spent traveling the country, meeting so many of you and helping people find love – whether that be from a partner or finding new ways to love themselves a little bit more.

My mom has always taught me that, ‘people may not always remember what you said, but they’ll always remember how you made them feel.’ The outpouring of love that I receive on a daily basis from Catfish fans around the world lets me know that I have done what I’ve always intended on doing, which is to leave every room a little bit brighter, warmer and safer than when I entered.” with all my love & gratitude, forever
