Janet Street-Porter Faces the Axe as ITV Shakes Up Its Line-Up
Janet Street-Porter Faces ITV Axe in Channel Shake-Up

ITV is reportedly considering dropping Janet Street-Porter from its roster as part of a major shake-up in its programming. The outspoken broadcaster, known for her sharp wit and no-nonsense opinions, may soon find herself without a regular slot on the channel.

Sources suggest that ITV is making significant cuts to its lineup, with several high-profile presenters at risk. Street-Porter, who has been a fixture on British television for decades, is among those rumoured to be on the chopping block.

Why the Cuts?

The move comes as ITV seeks to refresh its content and appeal to younger audiences. With viewing habits changing rapidly, the channel is under pressure to adapt—even if it means saying goodbye to beloved personalities.

Street-Porter, 76, has been a prominent figure in British media since the 1980s, known for her work on shows like Loose Women and I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! Her departure would mark the end of an era for many fans.

What’s Next for Janet?

While ITV has yet to confirm the decision, insiders suggest that Street-Porter may pivot to other projects, including writing and podcasting. Never one to shy away from controversy, she’s likely to remain a vocal presence in the media—just perhaps not on ITV.

Will the channel’s gamble pay off, or will fans revolt over losing one of TV’s most distinctive voices? Only time will tell.
