    Reading the news in the same studio as you two was a fraught affair: I literally had to shield my eyes as you all rocked in silent laughter at a joke told just before the jingle. Happy days.

    So many fun times. can I apologise once again from the pair of us for routinely threatening to balls up your news bulletins. Such special memories with an incredible team.

    Devastated to lose one of life’s brightest, funniest, kindest stars. We had a ball on Heart Breakfast. Every day a new adventure, a new chance to muck about & spread some joy. How cruel that this gorgeous human has been taken so soon. Love to Margot, Oscar & Emily 💔
