ITV has confirmed that the Genes Reunited website is to be placed up for sale as part of the Friends Reunited group, which the television giant purchased in 2005 for £120 million.
The site, which has recently been considerably revamped with new added features, is now up for tender, and an ITV press spokesperson has confirmed to me that a couple of approaches have already been made with regard to its potential purchase. How this will impact on users of GR has yet to be established.
More news as it comes...
