Ben, Liam & Belle depart Nova early

Ben, Liam & Belle’s time with NOVA Entertainment is at an end.

The trio’s national Late Drive show has wrapped up, with Ben Harvey, Liam Stapleton and Belle Jackson leaving the network after five years – effectively immediately.

Nova had already confirmed last month that Ben, Liam and Belle would be finishing up, with their final Late Drive show penciled in for December 12. They had moved back to Adelaide only the month before so that Ben and Liam could be closer to family.

Now the trio have officially departed the network, this further adds fuel to the fire that they will be the replacements for Hayley and Max after their exit was announced from Adelaide’s Mix 102.3 yesterday, an ARN station.

Ben, Liam and Belle had previously hosted Breakfast on Nova Adelaide and Melbourne’s Nova 100. They were replaced by Jase & Lauren, and shifted to the national Late Drive timeslot.

Thanking them for their contribution and wishing them well in their future endeavours, NOVA Entertainment’s Group Programming Director Brendan Taylor said in an internal email that further details regarding programming updates will be shared in due course.
