David ‘Kochie’ Koch is briefly leaving Sunrise for a special family reason – his daughter Georgie is getting married in London.
It’s undoubtedly an exciting time for the proud dad, who is also father to Brianna, Alexander, and Samantha, whom he shares with his wife, Libby.
David will be back on our screens in no time.

He also revealed he is going to spend some quality time with his in-laws as he will be staying at their home for the big event.
“We’re all sharing a house with he and his parents before the wedding and we’ve never met.
“It’ll either be Father Of The Bride or Nightmare On Elm Street. It will be a bit of fun,” he joked.
Above all else, Kochie is a proud family man, and aside from being a loving father, he’s a doting grandfather to seven grandchildren.
