Fox’s Janice Dean ‘Taking a Break’ To Deal With ‘Health Issues’

 



Fox News’s senior meteorologist Janice Dean announced that she is taking a break from the network because of certain health problems. Dean announced on social media that she has been taking a break from her work at Fox News and social media because she has “some health issues that need rest and time to heal.”

Dean, who is often on Fox & Friends to talk about the weather, said her bosses at the network have been supportive about the issue.

“I wanted to let you all know that I’m taking a break from work (and social media) for a bit. I’m ok, but I’ve had some health issues that require rest and time to heal. My bosses at Fox havebeen kind and understanding, and I feel blessed to be able to take a break to be with my family. The trip to Rome with Sean was a good place to start healing spiritually, and now I have to get back to feeling healthy and strong,” Dean wrote.

“I’ve always been up front and honest about my life, and I felt I owed you an explanation of my absence. But, I will be back. Grateful to you all for the kind words,” Dean added.

Dean, who is 55 years old, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2005. She told others about it in 2008. Dean’s recent post didn’t specify what problems she’s having or when she’ll be back at Fox.“I think with every MS sufferer you have that light bulb moment that something’s not right,” Dean told Fox News at the time.

“I remember it was during the 2005 hurricane season because it was such an active year, and I just felt really rundown, which isn’t like me. I’m a workaholic. I’m used to working long hours. And I remember thinking that I needed to make sure I took some time off because I was just so exhausted,” Dean added at the time.

Dean did not disclose how long she’ll be away from Fox News or what specific health issues she is facing.
