Paul O'Grady breaks silence on real reason behind Radio 2 exit

Television presenter, author and media personality Paul O'Grady has revealed the real reason he is bidding farewell to his Radio 2 show after 14 years.

It comes after the Sunday afternoon show host, who launched his weekly radio slot in 2009, broke the news to the world last week that he'd be leaving. Just hours before the 67-year-old comedian commenced his final show on Sunday August 14 at 5pm, Paul took to Instagram to telling his loyal following of 699,000 that he was stepping back as host on the BBC Radio 2 show as he "wasn't really happy".
