Claudia Winkleman Announces Departure from BBC Radio 2 Hosting Duties in the Coming Year
Claudia Winkleman is leaving her BBC Radio 2 Saturday show after three years, with her final broadcast scheduled for March.
Taking over in April will be comedian and actor Romesh Ranganathan, currently a host for a late-night slot on the same station.
Winkleman, expressing her love for the show and its listeners, cited her growing children's need for attention as the reason for her departure, though she plans to stay connected with special appearances.
She is thrilled that Ranganathan, known for his humor, will succeed her, and she looks forward to becoming a listener herself.
