BBC Radio 1 has revealed that six of its presenters will be leaving the station – including Rickie Haywood-Williams and Melvin Odoom.
The pair have hosted their mid-morning show alongside Charlie Hedges, who’ll be staying on with the station, for seven years.
Dean McCullough, Nat O’Leary, James Cusack and Swarzy will also be leaving the station.
“We thank them for their passion, creativity and dedication and wish them all the very best for whatever comes next,” Radio 1 said in a statement.
The departures come as part of BBC Radio 1’s schedule shake-up, with the station welcoming five new permanent hosts: I’m A Celeb’s GK Barry, social media star Charley Marlowe, broadcasters Mylo & Rosie and ex Absolute Radio host Emil Franchi.
