June Sarpong Leaves T4!


VETERAN T4 presenter JUNE SARPONG has quit the show after six years.
She follows VERNON KAY in handing over the Channel 4 morning job to younger hands.
Newcomer RICK EDWARDS will take her place on the teen magazine show alongside STEVE JONES, MIQUITA OLIVER and ALEXA CHUNG, girlfriend of ALEX TURNER from ARCTIC MONKEYS.
Rick has already worked on Channel 4’s youth and music shows but this is his most high-profile job yet.
Highlights of June’s spell on T4 include interviewing former Prime Minister TONY BLAIR in 2005. June, who does work for the Prince’s Trust, was awarded an MBE this year for services to broadcasting and charity.
A source said: “June feels she’s been doing the trendy teenage stuff for long enough. She’s after something a little more serious to get her teeth into.”
Maybe a place on the Loose Women panel awaits . . .
I Love June Sarpong!!
