Konnie Huq will leave Blue Peter early next year, she has told viewers.
Huq, who will become the show's longest serving female presenter in December, revealed the news on Thursday's show.
"When the time comes for my last show I'll be really sad," she explained. "But I will have been here for over 10 years which is a Blue Peter record."
The news comes after the BBC confirmed it was cutting the number of episodes per week and the resignation of editor Richard Marson.
