Following his lengthy absence from the “Good Morning America” weekend set, Rob Marciano officially announced his exit from the show in September 2023. While celebrating his 10th anniversary with the network, he broke the news on Instagram, writing, “I’ll continue doing what I’m doing, contributing across all ABC shows and platforms Mon-Fri, while getting more quality time with my kiddos on the weekends.”
Well, it seems he may not have had much say in the matter. According to various sources, Marciano’s allegedly questionable behavior was a long-running problem which was bound to get him in the end. Once he was officially fired in April 2024, an insider told the New York Post that the weatherman had, what he called, a “hot temper” while another alleged, “He’s got a short fuse.” The latter also claimed Marciano’s temperament had been an issue since the beginning.
“His personality wasn’t caused by his divorce or being treated like a beta [by Ginger Zee],” they slammed. A former colleague named Swetha Sharma corroborated those scathing reviews, telling People, “There were always stories about him about his temper.” And while others stressed that Marciano was friendly and pleasant to work with, a senior ABC staffer told The Daily Beast, “I’m surprised it’s taken this long.”
