Elizabeth Hasselbeck's last day as part of The View will be on Wednesday, after which she will be joining the breakfast show Fox & Friends from September which is seen in South Africa on weekdays at 12:00 (South African time).
"Elisabeth's warm and engaging personality made her a star on The View," says Roger Ailes, the CEO and chairman of Fox News in a statement.
"She has proven to be an excellent conversationalist and I am certain she will make a great addition to our already successful morning franchise."
Elizabeth Hasselbeck leaves The View after a decade after Barbara Walters three months ago in March vehemently denied then-rumours that Elizabeth Hasselbeck was leaving, calling it a "particularly false story".
"I have been a longtime fan of Fox & Friends and am excited to be joining their team in September," says Elisabeth Hasselbeck. "It is an honour to call the Fox News Channel my new television home."
Elisabeth Hasselbeck takes Gretchen Carlson's spot on the Fox & Friends panel who is starting her own American daytime talk show.
In a statement The View says "for a decade Elisabeth Hasselbeck has brought her passion and strong beliefs to The View. We watched her journey from newlywed to motherhood, an Emmy Award winning talk show host, author, entrepreneur and activist."
"She stood behind her political views even if they were not the most popular opinions at the table never shying away from voicing a difficult question. We thank Elisabeth and wish her luck as she begins this new chapter of her career."
