Gayle King may soon close a major chapter in her broadcasting career as reports suggest she could leave CBS Mornings when her contract expires in 2026.

According to Variety, the longtime anchor is expected to step down from her role at the morning news desk once her current deal ends in May 2026. However, sources indicate that King is not planning a full exit from CBS. Instead, she may transition into a new role within the network, focusing on creating original content and special projects under the CBS News division.
