Wilson informed colleagues in an email early last week, while Sky boss John Ryley told staff Dunkley and Simmonds were leaving on Friday afternoon. Andrew Wilson, Lorna Dunkley and Samantha Simmonds are all leaving broadcaster. The departures of the three presenters follows the announcement in May that head of content John McAndrew would be leaving Sky News after more than a decade. McAndrew was number three at Sky News, reporting to Ryley and Graham McWilliam, Sky’s former corporate affairs director, who was named deputy head of Sky News last July. Sky News will have a new trimmed-down presenter line-up following the EU referendum, with three of its on-screen anchors leaving in the last week.
