Stephen Nolan's radio show cut short due to family emergency

dailyrecord.co.uk:

The Stephen Nolan Show was abruptly taken off air this morning, leaving listeners puzzled when the host did not return following the 10 o'clock news bulletin.Typically occupying the 9am to 10:30am slot, the show was cut short by half an hour after a discussion on the Middle East conflict.Audiences were left in confusion when the presenter failed to return after the 10 o'clock BBC Radio Ulster news bulletin, and instead, a lengthier edition of the Connor Phillips Show filled the gap.The presenter later took to social media platform X (previously known as Twitter) to explain his sudden departure, revealing that he had received a call during the broadcast informing him of his mother Audrey's illness, reports Belfast Live.

Posting on the social media site, the Shankill-born host stated: "I got a phone call during the show to say my mum took ill this morning after falling overnight."I'm just letting you all know that's why I left early.

Mum will always come first."Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select 'Join Community' and you're in!If you're on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click 'Join Community'.We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
