Victoria’s exit will come as no surprise to viewers as she announced last month she was leaving the BBC.

Taking to Instagram, the newsreader revealed: “I wanted to let you in on something I’ve been thinking about and working towards for some time now.

“I am taking a little bit of a break from broadcasting and from the BBC in order to explore something new.

“So I – at the grand old age of 39 – going back to university.”

She continued: “I am enrolled in a full-time masters course, psychological sciences, which I’ve kind of sold to my parents as a bit of neuroscience with some thinking and feeling stuff attached to it.

“You can probably understand why that would appeal and be something I’m interested in.

“Should that all go well and I’m not terrible at it, I’ll be looking to progress and do a doctorate. Perhaps four years from now you’ll be looking at Dr Valentine.”

BBC Breakfast airs weekdays at 6am on BBC One.
