Sian Welby is to return to Capital Breakfast with Jordan North and Chris Stark next month.
Sian, who took time off to give birth to baby Ruby, appeared on the show this morning to announce she is returning from 2nd September.
Kemi Rodgers, who has been covering for Sian, will now host weekday mornings from 10am – 1pm. She will also continue to present her Saturday show from 9am – 12pm.
Rio Fredrika, who is currently covering the morning show, announced on Instagram that she is leaving the station, saying she wants to take some time out to work on her next adventure.
Speaking about returning to Capital Breakfast, Sian Welby said: “I’m so thrilled to get back into the studio with Jordan and Chris! We have some huge plans for when I return, so make sure you’re tuned in. I’d also love to thank Kemi for doing an outstanding job while I’ve been away. See you in September!”
Kemi Rodgers said: “I’m absolutely over the moon to be the new host of weekday mid-mornings on Capital! I’m also delighted because it means I’ll still get to see the Breakfast team every day as we’ll be show neighbours!
“It’s been a blast working with Jordan and Chris these past few months, and I’m so excited to start this new chapter.”
Brent Tobin, Managing Editor of Capital, commented: “We’re incredibly excited to have Sian back at Capital from September, and we know our listeners will be too. It’s fantastic that Kemi will be taking on mid-mornings on Capital – it’s a well-deserved move and an exciting new opportunity.”
