Speculation has been rife about the future of Melissa Doyle's career, two years after her shock departure from Channel Seven.
And reports now claim Channel Nine has finally nabbed the in-demand journalist, 51, with plans to add her to the Today show lineup in 2022.
'[Melissa] had 11 years at the Sunrise helm, and will be the vital missing link they've needed over at Nine,' a source told Woman's Day magazine on Monday.

Bosses are apparently planning for Melissa to join the Today show as a regular contributor.
'They want her in the studio live with Karl and Ally, and are considering a number of options – including a weekly segment that covers off the big stories. It's the best move they've made in a very long time,' the source said.
Fans could also see Melissa join the cast of 60 Minutes, which is currently hosted by Liz Hayes.
