Dunn is the executive producer of Seven News Sydney.

Confirming the happy news to news.com.au, Sadler said she and Dunn are “beyond ecstatic”.

In June last year, The Australian reported the journalist had quietly departed Sunday Night with little fanfare after first joining the program in 2010.

Sadler married former Channel 7 cameraman Trent Miller in 2009, though the two split a year later. Miller is now married to Footy Show host Rebecca Maddern.
