Thanks to New Idea, we were left confused over why our irreplaceable mate Karl would leave us like this. The magazine alleged that the local celebrity was leaving Nine to live in America and flee his divorce troubles. The mutterings became so fierce that Channel Nine was today forced to make a statement.

A spokesperson for Channel Nine has denied that Stefanovic is quitting the show next year.

“Karl is definitely on Today in 2017, alongside the team who have had such a successful year in 2016.”

Well, thanks goodness for that. However, Channel Nine News boss Darren Wick says that Stefanovic will be taking a break over the summer to spend time with his family. Stefanovic has recently split from Cassandra Thorburn, his wife of 21 years.

Hope you have a great summer Karl!
