Star Jones Makes Daytime TV Return as ‘Divorce Court’ Judge.
Star Jones is returning to daytime television and the courtroom.
Just a little over a week into the new year, Jones announced that she had been named the latest host of the long-running show “Divorce Court.” Starting in September, audiences will be able to once again get their daily dose of the outspoken personality who helped launch the popular roundtable talkshow “The View.”

“As a fan of television’s longest-running court show, I was honored to be considered to take over the ‘Divorce Court’ TV bench, following in the footsteps of three incredible women, Judge Mablean Ephriam, Judge Lynn Toler, and Judge Faith Jenkins,” said Jones.
While Judge Ephriam and Toler both carried the show for multiple seasons, Judge Jenkins had only been at the helm since March 2020.
Jones, 59, says her approach to mediating the often entertaining divorces will be both “meaningful” and “impactful.” “Star Jones will bring her life experiences, her knowledge as a litigator, and her forceful personality to that storied bench,” said Stephen Brown, executive vice president of Programming and Development for Fox First Run and Fox Television Stations.
