Carrie announced her exit on Tuesday episode of The Project, becoming emotional as she explained she and partner Chris would be taking their family to the UK.

‘In April I’m going to be taking a few months off The Project desk. Chris and I and the kids are heading off on a family adventure together,’ she said.

‘We’ve been wanting to do it for a while but lots of reasons, timing hasn’t been right, but we figure it’s never going to be the perfect time to go.

‘It’s something we really want to do before my son starts his final years at school so we’re doing term two in the UK. So I will be off for a couple of months.’

Carrie said she had been inspired by her co-star Kate Langbroek, 56, who spent two years living abroad in Bologna, Italy, with her family.

She also said on Instagram, it ‘feels like this is our last chance to do something like this together.’

Carrie has two children, daughters Evie, six, and Adelaide, three, with her partner Chris.

She also has a son, Oliver Lange, 14, who she shares with her late husband Greg Lange, who died of brain cancer in 2010.

The television host has been a core part of The Project for over a decade – since 2009.
