As the news of Ronn Moss's (Ridge Forrester) exit swept across the Internet, the actor broke his silence to discuss his impending departure with fans.

"I want to make sure, without any doubt, that you guys all know how much I love you. Your support during this time and hopefully beyond is everything. I can't say anything yet, but soon will explain," Moss wrote on Facebook. "Hang in there with me. We have a wonderful new journey ahead of us. Try and not be sad, angry, disappointed. It's been a great run and all good things end eventually. As this door closes, others are opening. I want you all to come with me through these new doors of opportunities and experience how cool it's going to be. Have faith, be strong, know I'm eternally yours."

The reason for Moss' exit was not made available, though, in an initial report by Entertainment Weekly, the reason cited was "salary issues."
