Jane McDonald is quitting the TV shows which see her cruising around the world.
The singer and presenter will no longer front Channel 5 favourites Cruising With Jane McDonald or Holidaying With Jane McDonald.
McDonald, who shot to fame on fly-on-the-wall TV series The Cruise, said she needed some time at home.
“It has been a privilege to call this a ‘job’,” said the 56-year-old.
Looking out at the audience as they light up their phones during "The hand that leads me". It's such an emotive song for me and I'm always touched that it means so much to so many of my fans too. pic.twitter.com/k8iDxgv5S2

“After so many years filming abroad, I am looking forward to some much-needed time in the UK and to focus on my music and tours and exciting new projects.
“Thank you, Channel 5, for some great trips and many fabulous memories.”
Director of programming at Channel 5 Ben Frow said: “We’ve loved working with Jane and are proud to have had her as part of the family.
“She helped us to win our first Bafta and her series have become solid staples of our Friday night schedules.
“Thank you, Jane. We are sorry to see you go but wish you every happiness for the future.”
McDonald is also a former Loose Women presenter.
