Tamsen Fadal is stepping down as primetime anchor at PIX11 after 15 years, Page Six can exclusively confirm.
The journalist will announce her exit during her newscast Friday afternoon, a source inside the station reveals.
“Tamsen is a legend at PIX. We’re all really sad that she has chosen to step down, but we’re happy for her,” the insider says.
“For the past two years she has had a side hustle on social media motivating women as they hit midlife, and it has really taken off.”
Fadal’s following on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook has grown immensely since she began posting empowering content for middle-aged women who are looking to start a new chapter while also navigating aging and menopause.
We’re told she will make social media her full-time job after leaving her longtime TV gig.
The storyteller, 52, also plans to launch a new podcast, write another book and secure speaking engagements to inspire women across the country.
“Her last show is this Friday after 15 years at the station,” our source affirms.
