The Repair Shop host Jay Blades has pulled out of a public appearance at the last minute, with his team sharing that he is 'taking time out' following his split from wife Lisa Zbozen.
The presenter, 54, was scheduled to appear at Hay Festival in Wales over this weekend, a literary festival which features a range of art, literature, science, politics, music and comedy activities and shows.
But cancelling just days before his appearance, Jay's team announced that he would be missing the event. A statement from his team said: “We wanted to confirm that as Jay Blades continues to take time out, he won’t be attending the session as advertised at this year’s Hay Festival.
