Mishal Husain Leaving BBC ‘Today’ Programme


Mishal Husain, one of the BBC‘s most established news presenters, is stepping down from her Today program role after 11 years and leaving the corporation after 25.

Husain will leave the BBC in the new year. She has developed a reputation over the years with the BBC’s flagship radio show for her skilled and intelligent interviewing style that holds politicians and others to account, while also holding general election debates.

She joined the BBC in 1998 and was previously a presenter on BBC World News. In 2014 she was the first reporter to enter the school attacked by the Taliban in Peshawar, Pakistan, and in 2017 her engagement interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was seen around the world. She joined Today in 2013 and has won numerous awards since.

BBC News CEO Deborah Turness said Husain “leaves the BBC with an incredible journalistic legacy.” “After more than a decade on the Today programme she is going with our gratitude and affection and we wish her the best of luck in her new chapter. I very much hope the BBC and Mishal will get the chance to work together again one day.”

Husain added: “My time at the BBC has involved many memorable moments, going to places I would never otherwise have seen, witnessing history and being part of live, national conversation on Radio 4. I will always be grateful for the opportunities the BBC gave me, and wish the organisation and everyone who is part of it the very best.”
