Jennifer Love Hewitt Pays Emotional Tribute to Peter Krause After His 9-1-1 Exit

The 9-1-1 family is still reeling after the emotional farewell to Peter Krause’s character, Bobby Nash — and now, co-star Jennifer Love Hewitt has broken her silence with a deeply moving message.

“I have no words,” she began in her post. “I couldn’t say goodbye because you are the best. I love you, Peter. Thanks for always being a light and for your hugs that could change a day for the better every time.”

Fans were quick to echo her sentiments, reflecting on the on-screen chemistry between Hewitt’s Maddie and Krause’s Bobby, which felt just as warm and genuine behind the scenes. Their characters didn’t share the most storylines, but their connection radiated through every shared moment.

Peter Krause, who led the 118 as Fire Captain Bobby Nash since the show’s premiere in 2018, became a rock for the team — and for the audience. His calm strength, emotional depth, and quiet leadership helped make 9-1-1 what it is today. His departure left a void that fans are still trying to process.

Hewitt’s words serve as a reminder that the bonds formed on these sets go far beyond the script. The 9-1-1 cast is more than a crew — they’re a family. And the love for Peter is real.

Though Bobby’s time has come to an end, his impact — on both his team and his fans — will be felt for seasons to come.
