The mum-of-two hosted the early morning breakfast show alongside TV veteran Eamonn, 65.
However, from 2025 Ellie Costello will now co-host GBN Breakfast five days a week, co-presenting with Eamonn on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Former Sky News presenter Stephen Dixon will host on Thursday and Friday alongside Ellie.

Before reuniting on GBN, Eamonn and Isabel – who are close friends off-screen – hosted Sky News’ breakfast show, previously called Sunrise.
Taking to social media, Isabel told fans that today was her ‘last’ show with Eamonn, but hinted that it was only for Christmas.
She shared a studio photo of her and Eamonn, captioning the image: “Done and out of our way! Merry Christmas.”
