TV presenter Johnny Ball says his daughter, radio presenter Zoe Ball, has told him she is in “such a good place” after quitting her BBC Radio 2 breakfast show.
She took over from Chris Evans on the show in 2019, becoming the station’s first full-time female breakfast presenter in the process.
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing.
Zoe was the BBC’s highest-paid on-air female presenter in 2023/24 with a salary between £950,000 and £954,999.
