Rose’s departure has left some fans wondering if it is due to personal reasons, namely: an emergency surgery she had to undergo after being injured on the set last year. However, a source told Variety that your decision to quit Batwoman “it had nothing to do with your health or injuries.” TVLine reported that Rose had a difficult time adjusting to life in Vancouver and working long hours. “It is not 100 percent their decision,” said a source of the current. “It was a rupture. She was not happy working in the program, and did that make it fun to work with them? No. So everyone decided that it would be in the best interest of the fair, and for all concerned, if they were separated. It just wasn’t a good fit.”
