Leo began his journalism career at The Argus newspaper in Brighton, where he gained recognition for his investigative reporting. His work on the dangers of fixed odds betting terminals led to significant regulatory changes in the gambling industry. In 2014, he was named the UK's Young Journalist of the Year at the Regional Press Awards. [1]
In 2022, Leo joined GB News as a producer for Dan Wootton Tonight. He eventually progressed to on-screen roles, including appearances on Saturday 5. He hosted Ben Leo Tonight' which aired weekends from 9 to 11 pm from early 2025 to August of that year and co-hosted Britain's Newsroom on Fridays from 9:30 am to midday from 2023- 2025
In August 2025, Leo announced he was relocating to America, in a post on X. From September, he’ll be reporting for GB News across the country and fronting the channel’s new US show alongside colleague and fellow host, Beverley Turner. This comes as the channel seeks to broaden its operations in the US market. [2]
