‘She not only looks good but presents herself in a very professional manner.’
It comes amid rumours Allison Langdon is about to announce her move from breakfast to prime time after being absent from the Today show for the sixth day in a row on Thursday.
Industry sources say the 43-year-old is the firm favourite to replace Grimshaw on A Current Affair, but it’s unclear who will be taking her spot on Today.
Grimshaw will soon sign off from A Current Affair after 17 years hosting the popular news show
Nine execs are understood to be trying out different co-anchors with Karl Stefanovic, including former U.S. correspondent Amelia Adams and 60 Minutes reporter Sarah Abo.
She is said to be keen to move to A Current Affair because the hours are easier as a working mother.
While Nine hasn’t made an announcement about the new host of ACA, the network is believed to only be considering candidates from within its own ranks.
