The veteran presenter Christiane Amanpour will leave CNN after 43 years at the channel.

Amanpour is CNN's chief international correspondent.

Her daily show "Amanpour", on CNN International, will air once a week starting in early 2027.

The show will end in late May, and she will leave the network the following month.

Amanpour, who is 68, said in a statement that she looks forward to "new and interesting projects in the future". She said this with excitement.

She will also end her PBS show, "Amanpour and Company", at the end of the year.

She said this in the statement that CNN shared.

She will continue her podcast, "The Ex Files", with her ex-husband, the former US diplomat Jamie Rubin.

In the statement, Amanpour said she had thought about it a lot for many months.
