Leslie is not only beautiful - but also one of the most caring and wonderful people I've had to pleasure of working with. Stop sending messages like this to anyone...if they're on TV or not - it's disgusting. Love you, Les ❤️
A very Happy 100th Birthday to my beautiful, talented, hilarious and wonderful Grandma! You have earned your letter from the Queen, but you will always be ours… 🇬🇧 ❤️ 🇨🇦
I am VERY excited to announce that I will be returning to

One year ago,
we did a thing,
It involved some snow,
And a couple of rings
One year later,
We’re still going strong,
Thanks for agreeing,
To put up with me for so long!
Happy Anniversary, Nikki ❤️

QUICK APPRECIATION THREAD: After being a direct contact of a positive COVID-19 case over the weekend - I tested positive this morning. Bad headache, sore muscles & chills. I can’t imagine how bad this would be without my vaccinations…
Happy 99th Birthday to the most amazing Grandma in the world! During a Skype call today I asked her what keeps her smiling after all these years - she said it was simple...”family.” Love you to bits ❤️ 🇬🇧 🇨🇦
Quick note: As I just mentioned on-air - these are my final few weeks at Global. This job has been the thrill of a lifetime and that has everything to do with the incredible team, and the amazing BC viewers…(continued)
…to every person who laughed at one of my bad jokes or puns - everyone who shared their stories - everyone who made me to be part of their morning routine - Thank you 🙏 Global is a family and I will always be a small part of it. Details on where I’m going very soon…

First week at Global - I wrote ‘Council will find out weather or not…’ in a script. Deb simply changed to ‘Temperatures will be high at city council..’ and said “I loved your idea for a weather theme!” An incredible anchor, mother & person. Love you, Deb.

It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Deb Hope. She was one of the most iconic faces in B.C. for decades and will be deeply missed. We are thinking of her family and loved ones. RIP Deb.

Thank you everyone for the lovely birthday wishes - but I have cancelled my birthday this year in order to stay in my ‘mid-30s’. I will re-evaluate next year - but I will be taking no further questions at this time. Thank you for understanding 🎂
