About Dan Wootton

Daniel John William Wootton (born 1983) is a New Zealand and British broadcaster and journalist. In 2007, he joined the News of the World. In 2013, he joined The Sun on Sunday and became editor of the Bizarre column the following year. In February 2016, he joined The Sun under the editorship of Victoria Newton, as associate editor and, in March 2018, was appointed executive editor. In 2021, Wootton left News UK to join MailOnline as a columnist and to present a show on GB News. His MailOnline column was suspended in early August 2023, after serious allegations were made against him (which he denies), and sacked in September after his GB News interview of Laurence Fox, who made offensive comments about a female journalist. GB News suspended both men. In February 2024, it was announced the Metropolitan police and Police Scotland were to take no action against him after a six-month investigation and, the following month, Wootton left GB News. Wootton has appeared as a show business presenter on the ITV Breakfast shows Lorraine and Daybreak.
