Longtime Fox News host Steve Doocy has announced that he is stepping down from his full-time hosting role on "Fox & Friends" in order to relocate to Florida —after growing increasingly frustrated with his 3:30 a.m. commute from New Jersey to the network's Manhattan studio.

Longtime co-host Steve Doocy announced this week he is stepping away from the “Fox & Friends” morning show and relocating to Florida full time. The 68-year-old was clear he’s not retiring, but after decades of waking up at 3:30 a.m. to drive into New York City from New Jersey, he’s ready for a later start time.

Fox News co-host Steve Doocy is the latest high-profile news anchor to shift to a new role. The Fox & Friends co-host said Thursday that he is moving to Florida, and will work three days per week as the “coast-to-coast co-host” for the morning show, anchoring from the south, midwest, and other parts of the country.
