After just 5 years, The Today Show’s Meredith Vieira has announced that she is leaving the show to spend more time with her husband and children with her official replacement being Ann Curry. Here is her official statement:
“This is a difficult day for me. I’m going to try to hold myself together here. After months of personal reflection and private conversations with my family and my friends I’ve decided to leave Today in June. Even as I say this, and I know it’s the right thing, I’m really sad because for the past, I like to say 10 years, this has been my second home.
I’ve really had a great time, but time is one of those weird things you can never get enough of it. It just keeps ticking away. I know I want to spend mine with my husband Richard and kids who are now rolling their eyes and going, ‘No more time, mom.’ But I’m going to do it anyway. It means I can’t be here every day. I hope to stay in the NBC family that is my goal.”
