Gayle King was spotted leaving her New York City apartment first thing Friday — just hours after reports emerged she was set to leave “CBS Mornings” after more than a decade.
The news anchor donned huge sunglasses as she emerged from her Upper West Side building before sunrise, The Post’s exclusive photos show.
The 70-year-old, who could be seen clutching her phone and a brown paper bag, was due on the air later Friday morning.
The sighting came after sources told Variety late Thursday that King — who joined CBS News as a morning show host in 2011 — was eying stepping down from her current hosting gig amid a major overhaul under the network’s new Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss.
“There have been no discussions with Gayle about her contract that runs through May 2026,” a CBS spokesperson told The Post following the surprising news of King’s potential departure.
“She’s a truly valued part of CBS and we look forward to engaging with her about the future.”
