Official: Mediaset has announced that Barbara D'Urso will no longer host Afternoon 5

Barbara D'Urso, during the last episode of Afternoon 5 before closing for the summer holidays, revealed for the first time where she will go in September 2023. Will she return to Rai, will she accept Netflix's proposal or will there be another twist ? Here's what we found out.

In recent weeks, many hypotheses had been chased about the future of Barbara D'Urso, especially after the beloved Neapolitan presenter had publicly declared that he would not have renewed his contract with Mediaset. Some said she would be back in Rai like judge of Dancing with the Stars (this before the reconfirmation of Wild Lucarelli), who instead would have signed a contracted with Netflix for a new reality show and even those who even claimed that it would go on Nine like Fabio Fazio.

During the last Afternoon episode 5, which aired Friday June 2 2023, before saying goodbye definitively to the spectators Barbara D'Urso has finally revealed where he will go in September 2023. News that many have been waiting for and which will certainly make his many fans happy.

Winning team does not change, Barbara D'Urso will remain at Mediaset (and Afternoon 5)

D'Urso, before closing Afternoon 5 for the summer holidays, revealed that no, he will not leave Mediaset, and that in September he will again host one of his most followed and loved gossip and current affairs programmes. True, at first she found it very difficult to sign the renewal contract with Mediaset, but Piersilvio Berlusconi he didn't give in and he found a way to convince her to stay… apparently also by increasing her already substantial paycheck.

Nothing to do then for the Rai and, least of all, for Netflix, who had been courting her for months: Berlusconi, knowing that the presenter, with his departure, would also have brought with him a large number of loyalists, who would have followed her elsewhere, preferred not to run the risk and make her an offer that would not he could have refused.
