Melissa Jane "Mel" Doyle AM (born 10 February 1970) is an Australian television presenter, author and personality.
Doyle currently hosts Sunday Night.
She was previously co-host of the Seven Network's breakfast television program Sunrise from 2002 to 2013 alongside David Koch.
Doyle attended the Pymble Ladies' College. She studied communications at Charles Sturt University and during her studies she was a broadcaster with on-campus community radio station 2MCE-FM. She gained a cadetship at WIN Television's Canberra bureau in 1990, then moved to Prime Television to become news anchor and general reporter. After her stint at Prime ended in 1995, Doyle joined the Seven Network as a Canberra-based political reporter before moving to Sydney where she read the news on 11AM, reported the news and read the afternoon updates. Doyle was one of Sunrise's original hosts before it was axed in 1999, before being resurrected in 2000, and which she rejoined in 2002. In 1999 she was the fill in presenter of the last bulletin of 11AM due to the incumbent presenter Anne Fulwood having already relocated to Melbourne. She also had a stint reading the Seven Late News.
In 2000, she took over as host of Sydney's Today Tonight following the departure of Stan Grant. She stayed until March 2001 when she left for maternity leave.
Doyle supports the Greater Western Sydney Giants AFL team; in 2012, she was named as the Greater Western Sydney Giants' inaugural No. 1 Ticket Holder.
