For the last ten years, Yvette Fielding has been bringing her brand of presenting to the popular UK ghost hunting series, ‘Most Haunted’, which airs on Living, formerly known as UK Living.
The presenter broke the news in a post on the website for the show's production company Antix Productions, which she set up with her husband Karl Beattie.
"It has been a great ten years.
However, after a lot of thought and soul-searching over the past year, I have come to a decision. It is now time for me to hang up my long black coat, move on and leave 'Most Haunted' as its presenter in order to pursue other projects."
Fielding added that she is very proud of what the show has achieved, which includes being viewed by members of the Royal Family, and being much parodied on Saturday Night Live. Though it wasn’t indicated whether the members of Royalty watching were dead or alive!
"At the start I wanted to bring paranormal investigations to a wider audience, making them more acceptable and with the ever growing amount of investigation groups that have started since 'Most Haunted' began, I feel that this has been achieved."
The 41-year-old confirmed that she intends to continue working in the field.
"As well as continuing with ITV2's 'Ghosthunting with...' which grows from strength to strength and with some great celebrity guests coming up, it is must-watch TV - I will be carrying on my quest to find paranormal activity on other channels taking investigations further than ever before and extending on what I have already done."
At present, Living hasn’t announced any plans to continue the series without Fielding.
