Meghan McCain is leaving Fox News, where she has been a contributor and host since 2015.
“I’m leaving to focus on other things,” she tweeted Friday morning. She has hosted the network’s show “Outnumbered” since November.
“Meghan has been a valuable part of ‘Outnumbered’ and the Fox News team,” the network said in a statement to Variety. “We’re sad to see her go, but we wish her all the best.”
Before joining Fox she was a host of “TakePart Live,” a talk show on Pivot.
Her father, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., was diagnosed with brain cancer in July. She has been spending time with him in Arizona since his diagnosis. He returned to the Senate in early September.
I’m so thankful to @FoxNews for the chance to be on @OutnumberedFNC but I’m leaving to focus on other things, I have no doubt the show will
