She also hosted Cool Aid Australia's National Carbon Test.[4]

She was the first woman to co-host the broadcast of the Melbourne Cup carnival and did so for seven years.[5]

In June 2013, Sully and a fellow Channel Ten journalist, Matt Doran, headed a new police crime program on Monday nights called Wanted, where she also did interviews with victims loved ones to appeal for the public to help solve the case by calling Crimestoppers.

As of 2018, Sully presents 10 News First Sydney.[6] Sully presented Ten Eyewitness News Brisbane in the 1990s, where she originally started out, before presenting Ten's flagship Sydney 5:00 pm weeknight bulletin.[7]

From September 2020 Sully will present the additional Brisbane bulletins as part of a shake-up to the 10 News First brand.[8]

Sully was the victim of an apparent stalker in November 1997. She was pistol-whipped twice in the carpark of her home after returning from a late shift at Ten. At an awards ceremony in late 2006, she told guests she had hired "a couple of security guards" following the incident.[9]

Sully married in 2011, becoming stepmother to her husband's adopted daughter.[10]
