During the re-launch of “10!” on May 23, 2006, it was announced that Wilson would be the official co-host of the show with Bill Henley.

In September 2006, Wilson moved over to “10!” full-time, where she continues to co-host with Henley. Aside from assisting with developing exciting new segments for the show, Wilson can be seen every weekday during the 5PM news introducing the “Today On 10!” segment.
