In a rare public comment, Perrette admitted, “I miss him every day,” revealing that despite the drama that once surrounded her exit from NCIS, her feelings for Harmon remain deeply complex.

Perrette, who played the beloved Abby Sciuto, had a close on-screen bond with Harmon’s Gibbs. Fans adored their chemistry, and many hoped their off-screen relationship mirrored that warmth. While past reports hinted at behind-the-scenes tension, Perrette’s latest words show a side of the story many didn’t expect—one filled with nostalgia and affection. “He was a mentor. He was a leader. We didn’t always agree, but I learned a lot from him,” she shared with emotion.

Though she’s stepped away from acting and the spotlight, Perrette’s message touched longtime fans. It’s a reminder that no matter what happened backstage, the legacy of NCIS is built on bonds that can’t easily be erased. And for Perrette, Harmon clearly left a lasting mark—one she’s not afraid to acknowledge anymore.
