A BELOVED star of BBC Radio 2 has announced a huge move as she’s snapped up by a rival station. Gaby Roslin will soon be joining Magic Radio to host a new weekend show, with the blonde beauty ditching the BBC and seemingly subtly snubbing her old radio station.

Gaby previously covered shifts on Breakfast at BBC Radio 2, with her famously filling in for Zoe Ball last summer. Over the years, Gaby has appeared on several BBC Radio shows, with her often sitting in for famous faces who were absent. In 2009 she sat in for Alan Carr on BBC Radio 2, with her also known for covering Vanessa Feltz and JoAnne Good on BBC Radio London.

In 2010, Gaby permanently replaced JoAnne as co-host of the BBC London 94.9 breakfast show and remained until January 2013. She was then given her own weekly Saturday show, live from noon until 2pm, in January 2013, and a year later, she was moved to an extended Sunday afternoon show.

Gaby has also worked at Virgin Radio in the past when she filled in for Chris Evans. But now the 60-year-old star is taking on a brand new project, with her gearing up to host a brand new show on Magic. Saturday, January 25, will be Gaby's first day at the iconic radio brand, with her set to present the 10am to 1pm show.

"I am so excited to finally be able to share the news that I’m joining the Magic Radio family," she said, adding, "Literally an opportunity that couldn’t be missed.". She went on to gush: "How lucky am I that I get to spend Saturday mornings with the fabulous Magic Radio listeners – finding out how everyone plans to spend their weekend and spending some time with them at the start of the best two days of the week.".
