Feltz declared that she had “loved every moment” and would miss her coworkers and listeners. However, she explained that in order to “make up on a much-needed decade’s deficit of beauty sleep,” she had to resign.

Since 2001 and since 2011, Feltz has hosted programs on BBC Radio London and Radio 2. On Friday, the 60-year-old will host her final early morning show on BBC Radio 2.

She will fill Jeremy Vine’s show for a week starting on August 15th, following a two-week vacation. On August 26, when she finishes covering Vine, she will leave BBC Radio 2 and host her farewell BBC Radio London show.

In comparison to Fetlz’s Radio 2 broadcast, which includes music, her BBC Radio London show is speech-based and includes news items and listener calls.

Feltz earns more than £400,000 a year for hosting her two daily radio shows, making her one of the highest-paid radio presenters at the BBC.

She will be succeeded, although it has not yet been revealed who will do so. According to the BBC, schedule announcements will come later.
