Longtime NBC10 Philadelphia News Anchor Has Left the Station

The weekend face of NBC10 news has left the station.

She was the weekend evening anchor for NBC10 for over a decade and did live reports in the field during the weekday afternoon news. Connors had been with the station since 2009.

All that is known about Connor's departure from NBC10 is that she left at the end of her contract in September. Connors has not been available for a statement and NBC10 has not given a reason for the split.

More than two months after Connors left NBC10, her bio and photo remain on the station's website.

NBC10 has said that they plan to fill the weekend anchor spot for now with a rotating cast of the station's reporters.

Rosemary Connors' Bio

Before being promoted to weekend anchoring in 2013, Connors served as the station’s political reporter for the 2012 Republican and Democratic National Conventions, the debates, and the inauguration.

She was one of NBC10’s lead reporters on the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal and was part of the team that received a Mid-Atlantic Emmy for coverage of the story.

She also won a Mid-Atlantic Emmy for her role in the team coverage of a deadly gas explosion in Northeast Philadelphia in January of 2011.

Connors, 40, holds a law degree from Temple University’s Beasley School of Law. When she was a U-Penn undergrad, Connors interned with the NBC10 Investigators and NBC’s Today Show in New York.

Rosemary Connors is a Philadelphia Native

Rosemary grew up in the Philadelphia area and is the third generation of women in her family to report the news in Philadelphia, according to her NBC10 web bio.

Connors is married with two children.

Back in 2022, she made news of her own when she finished anchoring a Saturday 6 pm newscast and realized she was going into labor.

Connors gave birth to a baby daughter, Evelyn Rose later that Saturday night. She had also been scheduled to anchor the 11 pm newscast but realized that baby Evelyn Rose wasn't going to wait long enough to allow her to keep those plans.
