BBG News

As a long-time listener and admirer of Zoe Ball, I must say her final Breakfast Show was an emotional rollercoaster that brought tears to my eyes as well. Her six years at the helm have been filled with laughter, joy, and comfort during those morning maneuvers, and it’s bittersweet to see her go.

BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball broke down in tears as she presented her final Breakfast Show.

Last month, the radio host revealed her plans to depart from her program following a six-year tenure, as Scott Mills prepares to step in starting next year.

This morning, on December 20th, Zoe’s last episode aired, and the host began the program by disclosing that “emotions were running high” already, adding humorously that she had just walked in and found herself momentarily unable to recall how to operate the control panel.

In due course, she tuned into communications from her BBC coworkers such as Scott and Rylan Clark. Towards the end, a heartfelt message from her son Woody sparked strong emotions within her.

With a quivering voice, Zoe expressed: “Oh dear me, this one is for all who have listened attentively and the entire team here. And of course, my children. Yes, I do care about you deeply,” as she introduced ‘Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)’ by Frank Wilson.

Towards the conclusion of the program, the main performer concluded her sign-off for the final time while expressing gratitude to many individuals. She also mentioned a notable fact by saying, “It’s quite remarkable being the first woman to host this weekday segment, and I won’t be the only one – keep that in mind, ladies. You are capable of achieving anything.

Afterwards, she spoke to the audience: “It’s truly an honor to share this morning with you all. We’re just passing the time together, like old friends catching up. This unique bond between us is something I always appreciate.

Over time, we’ve shared both the small victories and challenges of life. I truly hope that during those tough moments, our bond has offered some comfort and cheer. Your messages throughout the years have left me in awe, serving as a welcome respite from difficult times.

Here’s one way to rephrase the given text in a natural and easy-to-read manner:

Afterward, she honored her successor Scott, referring to him as “one of the best ones,” while assuring both him and the audience that they would all “have a great time together.

Zoe said, “I’ll catch up with you again in the spring, returning to Radio 2 to embark on fresh journeys. Just like the lyrics suggest, when you share a bit of love, it’s returned to you in kind. And I must say, I’ve certainly felt that affection from all of you listeners.

I’m incredibly grateful to be here with you. I wish you and your loved ones a bucketful of love this holiday season. It’s been truly special. Take good care of yourselves, dear friends, my cherished ones.
