At FOX Business Network(FBN), she began hosting Risk & Reward with Deirdre Bolton -- a business programme focused on alternative investments, real estate, startups and hedge funds. Despite the show being successful, FBN canceled the show in 2017.
Many fans attributed her absence behind FBN’s decision; she had taken a year off from making public appearances after suffering an illness.
