Is Gayle King leaving ‘CBS Mornings’ in 2026? Network responds to reports

On Thursday, CBS News denied reports that Gayle King will leave CBS Mornings, saying there have been no discussions about her contract that runs through May 2026.
Amid sweeping corporate changes at CBS and Paramount, Skydance Media's $8 billion takeover last August and John Dickerson, CBS Evening News anchor's departure after 16 years fueled speculation.
Gayle King has been a fixture on the morning show since 2011, co-anchoring CBS Mornings for 12 years; Variety cited four unnamed sources suggesting she might shift roles, prompting clarifications.
CBS affirmed King's value and said a CBS News spokesperson called her 'a truly valued part of CBS' and expressed eagerness to discuss her future role.
The Los Angeles Times reported that cuts affected CBS co-anchors Michelle Miller and Dana Jacobson plus correspondents, while Paramount began layoffs impacting around 2,000 employees and Bari Weiss was named CBS News editor-in-chief.
