He was present with the cast and host to bid viewers goodbye at the end of the episode, which is customary for the long-running sketch comedy show.Wallen then whispers something in Madison’s ear before giving her a friendly hug and walking off the stage without acknowledging the cast.

Wallen – who is based in Nashville, Tennessee – then posted an Instagram Story with a picture of his private jet and a caption that read “Get me to God’s country”.Viewers quickly took to social media to interpret Wallen’s sudden exit as a snub towards the cast.
