Heart weekend presenters Stephen Mulhern & Emma Willis are taking a break from the network over the summer.
Their regular Sunday morning 9am till 12pm show is now being hosted by Sian Welby for the time being.
They previously took a summer break in 2016 before returning to the show in August of the same year. Both Stephen and Emma have a number of other television commitments including The BRITS, Big Brother and Britain’s Got Talent, with Stephen about to start on a tour to film his own “In For A Penny In For A Grand” show.
They joined Heart six years ago in August 2012.
A Heart spokesperson told RadioToday: “Emma & Stephen are taking a break from their Heart show over the summer. Sian Welby will be hosting Sunday mornings on Heart every week from 09.00 to 12.00.”
Never heard of pre-recorded links?
Course they have, they’re on Heart.
They [Heart] could just repeat recent shows, the average Heart listener wouldn’t notice.
On a more cynical note, they only did 1 three hour show a week. They weren’t exactly making a massive commitment anyway.
Sian Welby seems to be the goto girl at Heart lately. Standing in for anybody who’s on a break.
True radio “professionals” -pi%% off elsewhere when there’s more money to be earned.
