Christiane Amanpour announced on October 19, 2026 that she will leave CNN in June 2027 after 43 years with the network.
The 68-year-old chief international anchor said in a statement, "After many months of thought and a few sleepless nights, I have decided to separate from CNN, my partner of 43 fantastic years!" She also urged colleagues to "always be truthful, not neutral."
Her exit will be phased. She already reduced her schedule to a few days a week in January 2025. Starting January 2027 her nightly CNN International program Amanpour will move to once a week and end in May, and her PBS show Amanpour & Company will conclude in December 2026. She will continue reporting and traveling for CNN until her final sign-off in June 2027.
CNN Chairman Mark Thompson said in a memo to staff that they had discussed the decision for months and called her one of the most trusted and beloved journalists anywhere."
Amanpour, who joined CNN in 1983 as a news desk assistant in Atlanta, is known for covering the Gulf War, Bosnia, Rwanda, Afghanistan, Ukraine and Iran.
She plans to focus on new projects and will continue her podcast The Ex-Files with former husband James Rubin.
