Simon Mayo is leaving BBC Radio 2 after seven years, quitting the station’s Drivetime show just five months after his co-host Jo Whiley was brought in.
The BBC has said it has yet to schedule an end date for Mayo and Whiley’s Drivetime show.
I’ve loved working with the exceptional Jo Whiley and when the show was ‘reconfigured’ she was my first and only choice.
The DJ, who has hosted Drivetime since 2010, said he “loved” working with Whiley and added she had been his “first and only” choice when the show was reconfigured.
