Kay Burley's Sky News replacement finally revealed in massive shakeup

Kay Burley's Sky News replacements have been revealed.

The broadcaster, 64, was at the helm of the news network for 36 years, during which time she reported on major events such as the September 11 attacks and the death of Princess Diana. In February, she announced her decision to step down live on air and now, six months later, it was revealed that Sophy Ridge and Wilfred Frost will be taking her place.

On Friday, Wilfred announced on X: "I’m insanely pumped about the all-new breakfast show coming soon. Loads of exciting aspects – but top of the list is partnering with Sophy Ridge. I know we’ll bring the best out of each other and together bring you the very best of Sky News in a fresh, warm and inviting way.” It didn’t take long before his co-star took to the social media platform to share her own announcement online."

In response, Sophy wrote: "Soooo I’m about to find out how many coffees one woman can consume before 7am. Me & Wilfred Frost will be shaking up Sky’s breakfast show from later this year and I can’t wait to work together. Presenting Breakfast is a massive honour for me and a real pinch yourself moment [heart emoji]."
