VIDEO : Possible Reason For Andrew Lincoln's Exit From TWD Explained

The Walking Dead star Chandler Riggs says longtime leading man Andrew Lincoln is leaving the series after eight-and-a-half seasons to spend more time with his family, who live overseas. Appearing at Fandemic Tour Sacramento over the weekend, Riggs was asked during a Q&A how he feels about Rick Grimes no longer being on The Walking Dead after season 9: ?I mean, honestly, he?s had to leave his family ? he lives in England and we shoot in Georgia ? and he?s had to leave his family every year for weeks and weeks at a time,? Riggs said.
