Mishal Husain will leave the BBC in the new year. 

Mishal has been a presenter on the Today programme for the last eleven years and hosts The Today Debate, as well as the recent BBC UK general election debates. She joined the BBC in 1998 and was previously a presenter on BBC World News. 

Mishal Husain said: "My time at the BBC has involved many memorable moments, going to places I would never otherwise have seen, witnessing history and being part of live, national conversation on Radio 4. 

"I will always be grateful for the opportunities the BBC gave me, and wish the organisation and everyone who is part of it the very best." 

Editor of Today, Owenna Griffiths, said: "Mishal is not only a formidable journalist and first-rate presenter, she is an extremely generous and thoughtful colleague. It has been my great privilege to work alongside her and, along with the Today team, I'll miss her enormously but wish her all the very best in her new venture." 

CEO of BBC News Deborah Turness said: "Mishal leaves the BBC with an incredible journalistic legacy. After more than a decade on the Today programme she is going with our gratitude and affection and we wish her the best of luck in her new chapter. I very much hope the BBC and Mishal will get the chance to work together again one day."
