Recently, Roberts made headlines when she shared an emotional post with fans. Taking to Instagram, she started a carousel post with an image of herself pointing to the ABC building logo.
Roberts noted in her post, “Friday finish. Nearly 3 decades after I first set foot in the ABC news headquarters as a new correspondent, the youngest to join the 20/20 team, we are officially saying goodbye to the building.”
“Change and goodbyes are always hard for me. I am comforted by routine and the familiar. But change is the only true certainty of life, right? So here we go… making new memories @abcnews.”

As Roberts continued, “For those of you who thought I was retiring, what are you talking about? I’ve got too much work to do.”
“I’m about to go work on our podcast for this week. I have a 20/20 shoot coming up. I’m going to take you behind the scenes a little later this week so you can see what this beautiful building is all about. But in the meantime, take it easy and I’ll see you soon.”
