TV and radio host Roman Kemp has posted an emotional tribute to his best friend on the second anniversary of his death. Joe Lyons, who had been a well-loved producer at Global radio for nine years, died in August 2020 after taking his own life.
Roman took to Instagram on Thursday, August 4 and told his followers: "I didn’t want to post this, but this is the reality for the people left behind. If you’re struggling, please stay. Don’t go."
In the heartbreaking post, which included a photo of a beaming Joe with a meerkat, Roman says: "How have I not heard your voice for 2 years? How have we not caused havoc in the studio or some dingy Soho bar? How have I not been able to call you to tell you I love you?
