After 20 years as Melbourne’s trusted weather presenter, Livinia Nixon steps away from nightly forecasts, reflecting on her celebrated career and future plans with Nine Network.
End of an Era at Nine Network
For many Melbourne families, the evening news was incomplete without Livinia Nixon's familiar weather updates. Now, Nixon is set to say goodbye to her weeknight role, closing a major chapter with Nine.
Her decision does not stem from tiredness or lost passion but from a wish to redirect her focus toward family life. At 50, she aims to spend more time with her children, especially as her youngest son, Ted, starts high school along with his older brother Henry.
“I’ve been on air for more of my life than I’ve not,” Nixon joked after the announcement, highlighting how closely her career has been linked to her personal life.
Career Beginnings and Growth
Nixon’s career with Nine began in 1997 at age 22, surprising many who knew her as a shy schoolgirl. She started on the iconic show Hey Hey, It’s Saturday, quickly becoming a household name.
Her entry into television followed childhood roles in TV ads and a push from a neighbor connected to casting agency Artist Services. Early mentors like Steve Vizard and Glenn Robbins, alongside the Nine team, were instrumental in shaping her career.
Summary
Livinia Nixon leaves her long-standing weather presenter role to embrace family life and new ventures, closing a two-decade legacy with warmth and gratitude.
