The Spanish broadcaster LaSexta is experiencing a period of personnel changes and structural reorganization. In late July 2026, reporter Paula del Fraile announced her departure from the network after a 14-year career.

By late August 2026, journalist Carlota Reig also announced her exit after 20 years with the company, including 12 years leading the sports division, LaSexta Deportes. Reig shared her farewell via social media, reflecting on her coverage of major events such as the Champions League and international tennis tournaments. Her departure occurs alongside a broader restructuring of the channel’s sports programming at Atresmedia, following the exit of Josep Pedrerol and the cancellation of the program ‘Jugones’. The network has implemented a condensed sports news format to accommodate the rescheduling of entertainment programming.
