What is confirmed
Abo will conclude her time as co-host and leave Nine at the end of the year. Her statement thanks viewers and colleagues and refers to both new motherhood and future opportunities.
What Nine has not announced
Nine says a 2027 lineup announcement is coming. Names circulating in press coverage remain prospective until the network makes that separate announcement.
The flip side
This is not an immediate disappearance from the program: the statement sets an end-of-2026 departure. Reports that her contract was not renewed add industry context but do not change the official timing.
Update note: Original source-read briefing adds specific context and evidentiary limits beyond the short feed summary.
