The explanatory text of the SEC filing states, "On September 10, 2019, Bob Iger resigned from the Board of Directors of Apple Inc."

That's the all information available right on on the SEC, but according to experts, the reason may be the clash of interests between the two company.

Disney and Apple both are preparing to launch their video streaming service in November, and people believed there is too much overlap.

Apple's AppleTV+ and Disney's Disney+ pretty much suggest where the clouds started to get hazy. (Did you know, even BET has announced its own streaming service, BET+)

Iger joined Apple's Board in November 2011, and after almost eight years, he left the board membership.

Now, there are only seven members, Chairman Arthur D. Levinson, James A. Bell, Al Gore, Andrea Jung, Ronald Sugar, Susan L. Wagner, and Apple CEO Tim Cook.

Meanwhile, many outlets have tried to reach the company's spokesperson for further comment, but none has heard anything yet.
