Karin Giannone, a household name for her regular appearances on BBC News, has revealed she will be absent from our screens for several months following major surgery. The 50-year-old news anchor took to social media to share the news with her followers that she had undergone a significant knee osteotomy operation. The news anchor took to X, formerly known as Twitter to share a snap of herself taken in a hospital bed as she was seen with monitoring wires around her as she recovered from the major operation. Accompanying the image, Karin penned: “I’m out of action for a couple of months after a knee osteotomy surgery, but very much looking forward to being back on air on @BBCNews when I am up and running again! ” Despite her love for pounding the pavement, she humorously added: “(*not actually running – that won’t happen for a while).”
