Alisyn Camerota will exit CNN. Her last show will be Sunday afternoon.
Camerota announced the news on social media just hours before her final show. In a brief message, the news anchor encouraged fans to tune in at 1:50 p.m. PT for her sign off.
Camerota anchored CNN’s morning show New Day from 2015 to 2021. Since then, she has hosted and co-hosted programs such as CNN Newsroom with Victor Blackwell and CNN Tonight with Jake Tapper and Laura Coates. More recently, she became a floating political commentator for the network, as well as a correspondent for The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper.
Prior to CNN, Camerota worked for 16 years in several roles at Fox News, including Fox & Friends and Fox & Friends Weekends. She is also the author of a novel, Amanda Wakes Up, and a memoir, Combat Love.
Camerota announced in September that her husband of 23 years, Tim Lewis, passed away from pancreatic cancer.
“The kids and I are still getting our bearings,” she wrote on social media at the time. “He was a phenomenal father, husband, friend and role model and the rest of us are left trying to follow in his footsteps. … Tim imbued us with a lot of strength and stability and we’re determined to try to emulate those qualities of his.”
The Hollywood Reporter reached out to Camerota and CNN for further comment on her departure.
