After nearly a decade at NBC’s “Weekend Today,” meteorologist Dylan Dreyer has announced she’s leaving the daytime show.
Dreyer is cutting back her workload, aiming to spend more time with her family. However, she’ll continue as weather correspondent for “Today” during the week.
“I really don’t want to step away,” Dreyer said on Saturday’s sendoff show. “I just don’t think I can do six days a week anymore. The boys certainly keep me busy.”
Dreyer recently returned from her maternity leave and has three sons in Calvin Bradley, 5; Oliver George, 2; and Russell James, four months.
“You know, I’m just watching that and looking back — I started in September in 2012 and I got married in October, so in the time I’ve been on ‘Weekend Today,’ I’ve gotten married, and I’ve had three sons,” Dreyer said.
“It really is incredible just to look back and think of the things I’ve been through, and not to mention everything I’ve done on the show.”
Dreyer will dedicate her time to her husband and kids with her weekends now free.
“These boys are my whole life, and Brian and I, we love being a team on weekends and spending as much time as we can with them and having as much fun as we can,” Dreyer said. “That’s really all I’m going to be doing, just sitting at home and just loving up on those three.”
