Chris confirmed it on Instagram last week:

Chris is sticking with 10

chrisbath on Instagram: "It has been quite the day. Might be stepping into some enormous shoes next year @abcinsydney radio & continuing my weekends with the great team @channeltennews . As a rusted on @richardgloveroz listener, I hope I can do his legacy and faith in me justice. Getting the opportunity to fill his shoes is also due to the gamble that Michael Mason, Linda Bracken & Cath Dwyer took on me after a dumplings lunch back in 2016. Without their faith, today would not have happened. Then there’s the amazing team at ABC Radio that shepherded me through my first Drive fill in shift 8 years ago, which remains one of the most amazing experiences of my professional life - Elizabeth, Lyndall, Emma - you know who you are!! They helped me learn the craft along with @jamesvalentine1 who always helpfully asked “Christine Bath what are you so worried about?” and then gave legendary words of advice. This was augmented by the encyclopaedia of radio & everything Rod Quinn and producer extraordinaire @mrdavidprior . More than anything I am beyond happy to be back with the amazing listeners of #abcradio who made it such a joy to go to work every day on Evenings (and any time I was a fill in on Drive). My first job was a radio reporter in 1988, bring on the full circle in 2025! It’ll be great to have the double of my @channeltennews anchor duties on weekends with @abcinsydney once again."

However, someone at the ABC still hasn’t got the memo though:

ABC Local Radio

Chris Bath, a former TV news presenter and Radio Sydney Evenings host, will present Radio Sydney’s Drive program next year. Looks like someone still hasn’t got the memo that Chris Bath will still be on TV next year
