Emily Allen is leaving FOX31
She shared the “bittersweet news” on 29 July – just over two weeks ago. After 10 “fantastic” years, Emily Allen is leaving Fox.
While she’s unlikely to miss her 3am alarm, she writes, she’s “going to miss the fantastic team at FOX31 and our viewers”.
Since then, she’s posted regularly to her Facebook followers, counting down to her departure. On 9 August, she wrote that leaving Fox “still feels surreal”.
Nevertheless, she wrote, “I’m so excited for this new adventure and awesome opportunity, but it doesn’t make this goodbye any easier”.
