The broadcaster had given updates on his health after the car crash during his lengthy hospital stay.
In 2018, the legendary broadcaster had announced his retirement from broadcasting following his diagnosis with the neurodegenerative illness, Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), which has no cure. His return to the radio came after a five year gap and presents a show every weekend.
He has credited his wife Paula with being “his rock”. The radio presenter has previously said that for about a year before his diagnosis, said he was fooling himself about the symptoms. The pair married in 2020.
