Announcing her departure, Jamie penned a lengthy post on her Instagram account. “After 3 years of laughs, learning, and crying with my beloved @expressoshow family, waking up at 4 am with a smile on my face every day because I absolutely love what I do. Tomorrow morning will be my final show waking up with you South Africa. It is certainly not an easy decision to walk away when this truly is my passion,” she wrote.

Jamie started her journey on Presenter Search On 3 where she was named the winner of Presenter Search, and she did not look back. She expressed her gratitude for the opportunity and said she is looking forward to spreading her wings.

“Being a part of the @presentersearchon3 journey 3 years ago, a show that was designed to make people like me believe that I can dream more and achieve greatness, has done exactly that. I am dreaming more, I am looking to be better and make sure that I hone my craft so well that I know every single time I take on a challenge whether it be in the radio, TV, MC or digital space, I have the ability to serve my audience. Yes, sometimes one has to step away from something you love to gain that experience and that skill set to pursue a different path.

In closing she said “If I ever do decide to come back, I’ll be a better version of myself and more ready to serve this audience, but for now as a woman and a mom in South Africa, I have to take as many opportunities that I can to work on myself. This is definitely not goodbye to you Expresso just a little detour in my journey. To South Africa, to my mommy and my little boy Luca, thank you for allowing me into the living rooms, kitchens, offices of this great country for the last 3 years. I Iove you.”

Expresso team said she may be leaving the show, but the door is always open. “It’s not goodbye, it’s see you soon.” @jamie_domburg. After three unforgettably special years, Jamie-lee Domburg is spreading her wings to pursue new opportunities. Today was her last day on #ExpressoShow but the door is always open! We can’t wait to see what this dynamic and inspiring Mama will do next and we wish her all the best for this new chapter. Love always, your #ExpressoShow family.”
