HER CAREER HAS BEEN ONE BIG HIGHLIGHT!

WELL READ!-Ingrid's brave news world

Taking over the prime role of a Newshub 6pm newsreader would be a career highlight for many journalists, but for TV3 veteran Ingrid Hipkiss it’s just one of many in her lengthy career.

“I’ve been so lucky to be a part of this place, and when I look back it’s all been one big highlight really,” smiles Ingrid.

From Monday night, the 46year-old will fill in for Samantha Hayes (35), who gave birth to her wee boy Marlow on September 19. Her maternity leave was originally covered by Melissa Chan-Green, who herself has now gone on leave to have a bub, so Ingrid’s not sure how long she’ll be sitting in the presenting chair while Samantha is on maternity leave.

“She’s great at the job and loves it, so I’m sure she’ll be back quick smart, but as a new mum that’s not something you can always do easily. I know she has her mum with her at the moment, which is such an amazing gift when you’re a new mother.”

Ingrid is no stranger to the Live at 6pm studio, having worked as the show’s weather presenter since her role on The Paul Henry Show ended in January 2017.

“I’ve worked with Mike McRoberts in that studio for years and we have a really good team environment going so I know I’m in safe hands,” she tells. “I’ll be part of the same team, just playing in a slightly different position!”

Ingrid has been preparing for the role by reading the Newshub weekend editions for a month.
