Jimmy Kimmel is coming back to ABC on Tuesday for the sake of his staffers, according to a new report.

The Daily Mail claimed Monday that the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host made the decision to return post-suspension “out of respect … for everyone that works for him.”

A source alleged, “He wanted everyone in his crew not to miss any pay and any more work than they already have missed.”

The 57-year-old reportedly wanted “the people he works with [to] have some time to figure out their next steps.”

The insider claimed that while Kimmel “might not be leaving ABC now, he will once his contract is up [in 2026] unless they offer him a boatload of money.”

If it wasn’t for his team, the Daytime Emmy winner allegedly “wanted to leave ABC and expected not to be coming back at all.”
