Claire Hooper to exit Mix

Claire Hooper could be leaving the Mix 106.5 breakfast show in Sydney, says The Daily Telegraph this morning.

Whilst the Telegraph is reporting it as a 'maybe', we'll go a step further and say it is a definite that she will not return to the station in 2013.

The Telegraph reports that the station have been trialling potential co-hosts for Rosso that include Julia Morris and Yumi Stynes.

The insider quoted in the article says: "Claire didn't really want the gig in the first place and was persuaded to take it but she couldn't fake her affection for Tim."

It would seem unlikely that Yumi Stynes would get the nod, her public persona has taken an absolute beating since her unfortunate joke about an Australian soldier on The Circle earlier this year.

Julia Morris, however, has had her stocks growing since appearing on The Celebrity Apprentice, and as a comedian would ease the 'comic' load on Rosso if he remains, which it appears that he will.
