Channel 3 News Director Rita Andolsen announced today that morning show co-anchor Abby Ham will be returning to her earlier roots, to her family in Knoxville, Tennesee as WBIR's morning show anchor.
Ham will leave in June.
Abby joined the Channel 3 News team back in November, 2007.
Andolsen said, "Abby has been a wonderful addition to the morning show team. We will miss her smile, her spirit, and her dedication, but her heart is calling her home to her family in Knoxville."
Abby and her on-air comrades of Mark Nolan, Hollie Strano, and Maureen Kyle as well as the entire morning show team have worked very hard to make Channel 3 News Today the place to turn when you wake up and the perfect way to start your new day. They have gained a faithful fan base.
WKYC and WBIR are both Gannett-owned stations.
I wish her well on her new endeavors. She will be missed. Our loss is definitely WBIR's gain!
