Kelly-Anne Byrne announces her departure from Today FM after nearly six years with the station

Radio host Kelly-Anne Byrne has announced her departure from TodayFM after nearly six year with the station.

Kelly-Anne took to social media to release a statement informing her followers of her decision to end her time at the station as well as her show The Beat Goes On.

The host revealed that this Saturday and Sunday will be her final shows as she thanked her Today FM colleagues.

She said: "Hi guys, I have made the decision that it is time for both myself and The Beat Goes On to finish up on Today FM.

"It's hard to believe its been almost 6 years since the whole thing started."

Among those who she paid tribute to included fellow Today FM stars such as Ian Dempsey, Mario Rosenstock and Tony Fenton whom she said "always believed" in her.

She added: "Above all I want to thank you, the listeners who have stuck with me from day one. I couldn't have done this without your support.

"My reason for being on the radio was always and ever about sharing music, because music is the answer and love is the message."

She went on to say that she was "really looking forward to the future and focusing on other projects."

A replacement has not yet been announced by the station.
