After almost 24 years at Nine and 34 years in broadcast journalism, Georgie Gardner has resigned.
In a statement shared the journalist on her Instagram, the 55-year-old has shared her excitment for new opportunities.
“Time now to embark on a new chapter and not yet sure what that looks like, but I’m open to new opportunities and I’m excited,” she said. “So much still to learn and discover in the world, and at age 55, so much still to contribute.”
Georgie continued to reflect on her career, which started in her early 20s.
“Starting out at 2NX Newcastle in 1992 as a wide-eyed 21-yr-old from Perth, little did I realise my career path would be so rich and rewarding,” she added.
“Opening my mind to new ideas, satiating my curiosity for news and current affairs, highlighting causes for positive change, and accommodating my passion for communicating and connecting with people… broadcasting has been a great gift.
“And then there are the countless colleagues who’ve enriched my journey, along with all those I’ve interviewed.
From politicans to Australian celebrities, Georgie has experienced a stellar career, which was why “the decision to resign has not been made lightly.”
“So to them and our viewers, I am immensely grateful,” she said. “It’s been awesome, and it’s time.”
Georgie will present her final 9News Sydney bulletin at 6pm on Friday April 17, 2026.
