Sunrise Star Reveals Departure Live on Air

Mark Beretta ends 22 years on Sunrise to focus on family and lead cancer charity efforts, raising awareness through 16 Tour de Cure rides, a cause close to his heart.

  • On Thursday, Mark Beretta announced he will leave Sunrise after 22 years and Seven after 30, wrapping up with a final episode on December 12.
  • After family health setbacks, Beretta cited losing his father two months ago and his mother’s ongoing illness, saying family time and supporting Tour de Cure have become his priorities.
  • Across his career, Beretta covered 13 Olympic Games, ran with the Olympic flame in Sydney 2000 and Beijing 2008, completed 16 Tour de Cure rides, and earned the Order of Australia Medal.
  • Colleagues paid tribute as Sarah Stinson, Seven's Director of Morning Television, called Beretta Sunrise's sports 'heartbeat' and Natalie Barr offered a personal tribute; Seven thanked him and confirmed ongoing special projects.
  • Beyond his final show, Beretta's work across major sporting events leaves a lasting legacy at Seven, and he said his passion 'won't be far away' as he shifts focus to family, charity, and special projects within the Sunrise family.
