It looks like the all-female line up on the TODAY show is going to get a shakeup.

According to The Australian, newsreader Tom Steinfort will become a member of the core team, as an anchor at the desk. 

“Today’s hosting duo Deb Knight and Georgie Gardner will effectively become a trio,” the report read.

“Expect to see more of Steinfort in all facets of Today from now on, breaking up what viewers perceive to be a competitive dynamic between Gardner and Knight.”

Fellow male Steve Jacobs – who is currently the weatherman – will also amp us his time on the show.

“Viewers have had decades of a male-female combination. It takes time to change that sort of habit.”

A Nine spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia, “Our promos, marketing and publicity has been consistent in its messaging of “wake up with Georgie, Deb and Tom” since we launched in January. Nothing has changed.”
