Mary Wilson has decided to leave RTÉ

Broadcasting stalwart Mary ­Wilson is ­retiring this month, in what will be another blow to RTÉ.

The Morning Ireland host, who turns 65 later this year, will ­present her last show on September 24. It is understood Wilson had the option to remain in her role for another two years under new employment rules, but made the decision to step down.
