However, Norville recently announced a change in careers with viewers. This comes out after she has spent three decades in her role on Inside Edition.

Notably, Norville made the announcement live on the air. As she shared, “It has been an honor and a privilege to be here at Inside for all these years. A milestone like this is a time for reflection. And on reflection, I’ve decided that now is the time for me to move on from Inside Edition.”

Norville Further Discussed Her Inside Edition Exit On Social Media

“They made me a lovely offer to stay. But there are things I’d like to do and places I want to do them that continuing here don’t permit. So, at the end of this season, I will be moving on. I’ve got some exciting things in the work and I’ll talk about that later.”

“But what I want to say right now is what a privilege it has been to lead Inside Edition for all of these years. To work with the incredibly talented team here and to be invited into your homes every day. It’s an honor I don’t take lightly.”

Norville also took to social media to share things further. Once again, she hinted at what was to come next with fans.

As Norville looked back on her career, she mused in the caption, “30 years doing anything is quite the milestone and after 30 years anchoring Inside Edition, it’s time to do something new. I have declined the offer to continue at IE and will move on at the end of this season.”

“It’s been an amazing ride and I will leave with gratitude for the people I have worked with and for – and the viewers who have watched. Twice before I made career moves for personal reasons (Chicago to NBC News in NY, CBS News to Inside Edition) and they were the right decisions. This decision is also motivated by family … and I know it it’s a good one. There’s lots more to come from me … just from a new place.”
