Peter Alexander announced his exit from the TODAY Show after working for 22 years with the network. His wife, Alison Starling, a seven-time Emmy Award-winning journalist, left her position at 7News after 20 years citing personal reasons.
Peter Alexander expressed his desire to dedicate more time to his daughters, Ava and Emma, and 'challenge himself with something new.'
Alison Starling, who joined 7News in 2004, served as the anchor for the noon, 4 p.m., and 5 p.m. newscasts and won seven Emmy Awards for her reporting on significant stories, including the 2011 earthquake, Pope Francis, and the Baltimore Riots.
She decided to step away from her post to devote more time to her family, particularly her two daughters, and stated that she would never get this time back with her kids.
