She's been talking about it for a while, what with her grooming Kylie Jenner to take over from her, so this isn't a massive surprise.

The "39-year-old" (seriously) star has hosted Chelsea Lately for the past eight years, where she has an average viewership of 572,000 a night, but intends to leave the programme in nine months time - when her contract expires - as she's had a number of offers for work coming in from elsewhere.

The host's manager Irving Azoff told The Hollywood Reporter: "Chelsea intends to leave when her contract expires. She hired me to figure out her life after E! We have at least seven suitors and many ideas."

Chelsea - who is believed to make around $9 million a year from the show - has previously voiced her concerns about the E! network and described it as "a sad, sad place to live." She then added the final nail, saying: "They don't know what they're doing. They have no ideas. It's a failure."

A source at one company on the list to meet with her believes those remarks may affect her chance of getting work in the future, saying: "When you see talent go after a network like that, you think one day it could be me..."

E! have refused to comment on the blonde's future.
