‘As with any casual position, the availability of work ebbs and flows with the requirements of the company.’

An alleged source told the paper: ‘Nothing was really said about it … one day a memo just went around saying that ‘Georgia no longer works here”.

The paper went on to claim that Georgia’s exit is believed to be part of the brutal Covid-19 cost cutbacks at the network last year, which saw least 25 jobs slashed.
Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Georgia Love for comment.
Georgia landed what she described as her dream job with the channel in 2017, as a reporter at Ten Eyewitness News Melbourne.

‘I knew I never wanted to do anything else with my life. Today, I worked my first day in that very newsroom.’
