Former GB News reporter and presenter Rosie Wright is joining Times Radio to present the station’s Early Breakfast show on weekdays.
The hourly programme was launched in June 2020 by Calum Macdonald, who has since gone on to co-host Friday to Sunday Breakfast on Times Radio, alongside Chloe Tilley.
It has been presented since May 2022 by Anna Cunningham.
Prior to joining Times Radio, Rosie was a presenter and reporter on GB News and anchored the rolling international news programme Good Morning Europe on Euronews. She has also presented across BBC and commercial radio stations including BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, Love Sport Radio and Premier Radio.
Rosie will also work as a cover presenter on a range of Times Radio shows. She says: “I’ve spent my career hosting breakfast programmes waking people up with the day’s news agenda and I can’t wait to get started at Times Radio. As a listener to the show, it will be brilliant to sit behind the microphone and get to know the audience and the team at the station.”
Times Radio Programme Director Tim Levell added: “Times Radio is all about making intelligent news coverage enjoyable to listen to, and I am thrilled that Rosie will be waking up our listeners. Rosie has wowed us with her warmth and charisma, as well as her years of journalistic expertise, and I am confident our loyal army of early risers will feel well-informed, entertained and motivated in her hands.”
Rosie starts at 5am on Monday 23 January.
Some of my own news! Friday will be my last day @GBNews. From my road-trip when we launched, hosting The Great British Breakfast with @SimonMcCoyTV & launching bulletins, it's been a blast.
I'll be on breakfast tomorrow…. for now though, here are some best/worst bits! pic.twitter.com/hjnxBqRW9Q
