Global News Halifax and Global News New Brunswick are delighted to welcome Alyse Hand as the new co-host of Global News Morning.

Hand replaces former co-host Andrea Dion, who recently followed her roots back to Western Canada after nearly 3.5 years in Halifax.

Welcoming Hand to the morning news desk is longtime co-host Paul Brothers, who has been with the show since its launch in January 2013.

Born and raised in Bedford, Nova Scotia, Hand is proud to be a Maritimer. She’s worked in local television in the region for many years, followed by a short stint in public relations.

Fans of Hand will be delighted to see her return to television as a fixture on Global News Morning.

“Alyse is a wonderful local talent. She’s a natural fit with her professional background, passion for news, and shining personality. We’re so pleased to welcome her to Global News Morning,” said Rhonda Brown, News Director, Global News Halifax/New Brunswick.
