BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball has been inundated with messages of support as she issued a health update to fans. It comes as the long-serving broadcaster was missing from today's (Jan 30) show, where she is typically heard hosting the early morning slot from 6.30am to 9.30am on weekdays.
Listeners were surprised when instead of Zoe's voice, they heard her replacement's - Radio 1 DJ Vernon Kay. Explaining her absence from the show, Zoe took to Twitter to shares a health update and to thank Vernon for filling in.
"So I’ve got coronavirus," she said. “But good news is ya man @Vernonkay is looking after y’all @BBCRadio2. Back soon." Many fans were devastated by the news, including fellow celeb pals.
