After almost two years away from our TV screens, Tracy Grimshaw recently made her big TV comeback on Channel Nine's hit new investigative series, Do You Want to Live Forever? But sources tell New Idea the respected journalist is being seriously considered for a very different role, with the same network keen to see their beloved anchor star in a celebrity version of Travel Guides!
The popular travel program "has been rating through the roof lately", says an industry insider. "So much so, that Channel Nine are exploring options to produce a blockbuster oneoff celebrity edition."
Despite her absence from the spotlight in recent times, execs know a big name like Tracy, who hosted A Current Affair for 17 years before stepping down in 2022, would be sure to draw in the viewer. It's a left-field casting decision but our source says Tracy, 64, could be persuaded to consider taking part.
