ABC radio Adelaide’s Stacey Lee announced on Thursday that she was quitting the station to join rival network FIVEaa.

Lee’s resignation is effective immediately, and comes after two years hosting 89AMs breakfast show alongside Nikolai Beilharz.

The former Sky news journalist will take over the afternoon slot as a solo presenter at FIVEaa reports the Adelaide Advertiser.

‘The chance to be a part of the FIVEaa family was an opportunity too good to pass up,’ Lee said.

‘I love speaking direct to the Adelaide audience and learning what makes them tick, so I’m really excited to be able to do even more of that in a solo capacity on afternoons.’

It comes after Lee made headlines last week, when speculation surfaced that she was ready to leave the ABC for top-rating FIVEaa.

Lee and Beilharz have suffered against their breakfast slot rivals, falling into third place in the last radio ratings survey.
