Scottish TV presenter Lorraine Kelly expressed deep sadness when she announced the departure of her colleague from ITV during her morning show. She tearfully informed viewers that the co-host would be leaving the program due to recent schedule changes and cutbacks at ITV. Lorraine revealed that it was the final day for former “Strictly Come Dancing” star Tyler West to host the entertainment segment on her show.
Tyler is set to join KISS FM as the new Breakfast host, teaming up with Love Island alum Chloe Burrows. This opportunity arose after Jordan Banjo and Perri Kiely, who previously hosted the morning show, abruptly resigned from their roles in December.
Excited about his new venture, Tyler shared his enthusiasm for the upcoming morning show on KISS FM, promising a mix of laughter and great music for listeners. The show will compete with popular morning programs like Radio 1 Breakfast with Greg James and Capital Breakfast hosted by Chris Stark, Jordan North, and Sian Welby.
Tyler’s recent success includes participating in Celebrity Race Across the World, where he finished as a runner-up alongside his fiancée, EastEnders actress Molly Rainford. Despite narrowly missing the victory, their journey through Central America, covering 5,900km in 33 days without phones, was a memorable experience.
In a candid revelation, Tyler disclosed his struggles with mental health, recounting a traumatic incident from his teenage years when he witnessed a murder. The event left him with lasting emotional scars and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), emphasizing the importance of seeking help and not suppressing such experiences.
