The former Sky News and GMTV presenter, 62, will host a new programme in the New Year, the network has announced.
Holmes said: “I’ve spent my career on broadcasting firsts and start-ups, and GB News is one of the most exciting yet. It’s just the kind of shake-up the industry needs.”
He is set to leave ITV’s This Morning, where he and wife Ruth Langsford currently act as holiday cover.
In his statement, Holmes added: “I’ve admired GB News from the beginning for its clever mix of punchy debate but delivered with warmth and even some fun.
“To me the greatest honour in journalism is to give a voice and respect to the unheard, and that’s exactly what GB News is all about.”
GB News launched in June and says it aims to “give a voice to the real Britain” and “take a frank and honest look at the world”.
