Roman Kemp: Recounting the Pain of Reliving Capital Radio Producer’s Tragedy Daily

Roman Kemp has reflected on his four-year tenure hosting the Capital breakfast show, likening it to continually reliving the “horrible day” of his friend and producer’s death.

In August 2020, while on air for his radio show, Kemp received the devastating news of Joe Lyons’ suicide, an experience he described as “such a horrible moment” that has haunted him since.

“For me, I’ve been living that same day over and over again, without the awful event,” Kemp shared.

His final show on the station aired on Thursday, marking the end of an era for Kemp, who expressed his readiness to move forward and close this chapter of his life.

Reflecting on his time at Capital, Kemp mentioned the challenges of balancing hosting duties with his personal life, noting that the demands of the daily show were taking a toll.

“It came to that point of ‘I need to leave this behind now,'” Kemp explained, emphasizing the need to prioritize his own well-being.

Part of his decision to depart was driven by the desire to “close this chapter” following Lyons’ death, allowing him to move forward.

At the time of Lyons’ passing, Kemp referred to him as “my best friend.” In the aftermath, Kemp produced a BBC documentary titled Our Silent Emergency, focusing on men’s mental health.

Since leaving Capital, Kemp has diversified his career, appearing on BBC One’s The One Show, co-hosting the Brit Awards, and joining his parents, Martin and Shirlie Kemp, on Celebrity Gogglebox. He will also participate in the celebrity football match Soccer Aid in June.
