Nancy Grace announced on Thursday that she is leaving HLN when her contract expires in October, which prompts the question: What will HLN look like without the face of the network?
Losing Grace will undoubtedly impact the primetime viewership unless CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker has a trick up his sleeve in terms of a replacement. One change has been in the works for quite some time, as former CNN “New Day” co-host Michaela Pereira will debut her own show on HLN next month.
“This is news to me, I’m still trying to process it. I just know that Nancy wouldn’t have it any other way … we just carry on, doing what we do,” Pereira told TheWrap regarding Grace’s exit.
