Olly Murs ditches radio show after boozy night out as co-host Mark Wright speaks out

Daily Mirror20-07-2025
Singer Olly Murs failed to show up to present his radio show alongside Mark Wright after he partied hard the night before to celebrate the release of his new single
It has been three years since he released new music. So it's perhaps understandable that Olly Murs was desperate to celebrate the upcoming release of his new single. But it looks as though Olly, 41, may have taken his celebration a little too far as he failed to show up to present his radio show the following morning.

Olly co-hosts the Heart Radio breakfast show alongside former TOWIE star Mark Wright. Olly's new song Save Me comes after the announcement that he was to become a father for the second time with wife Amelia.

Sat by himself in the radio studio, Mark told listeners: "So if you've been listening to Heart this morning, you'll know that my co-host Mr Olly Murs isn't in." And to make matters worse an Instagram clip was shared of Olly partying in a bar.

Mark added: "No one can find him. Didn't know where he was. And someone has just sent this into the studio. Him out last night, caught on CCTV in a bar or a pub."
He continued: "So he's obviously out, had a late night and not turned up to the studio. Very professional Olly Murs, I like it. Yeah, very good." Suffering from a heavy hangover, Olly then took to social media to recount the night before.

He wrote on his Instagram story: "Last night was mad! Might've gone a bit too hard while celebrating the new single coming out with the boys…"
He added: "Also seem to have lost my wallet if anyone finds it." He then shared Mark's Heart Radio clip. And captioned it saying: "Can't believe I missed the show today. Man does my head hurt!"
Earlier this year, Olly underwent an impressive body transformation. Following a gruelling gym regime Olly shared images of himself with a ripped six-pack torso.

And he recently posted a video on his Instagram account which showed him doing pull-ups, boxing, cycling and weight-lifting.
Olly became a father last April as he welcomed his daughter Madison. At the time, Olly was left devastated as just days after the birth of his first child, as it coincided with his tour dates with Take That.

At the time he confessed on his breakfast radio show: "It was really hard for me as I had to leave two days after the baby was born to go on tour with Take That."
He added: "I didn't really process it at the time and a few months later me and Amelia were chatting and I just broke down in tears as I never got a chance to actually get to know this little baby."
And now a year on, Olly is set to become a father for the second time. Sharing his happy news on social media, he shared a black and white image of the family on an Easter walk together. He captioned the post saying: "We're so egg-cited to share this..… Another Baby Murs on the way."

I tried posh £21 fish and chips that David Beckham ordered – 3 words sum it up

I was dispatched to see if a luxury order of fish and chips was worth the hefty price tag What's the most you'd be willing to fork out for fish and chips? For me, it's not about the money but the time spent journeying to the east coast where two chip shops serve up fare so delightful it's downright soul-stirring. ‌ In St Andrews, Tailend and Cromar are where you'll find succulent haddock in a batter that's been fried to a masterful standard I've not seen elsewhere - an astonishingly light, supremely crunchy coating with frilly, jagged edges that audibly snap into fragments. ‌ This culinary masterpiece is nestled atop a pile of chips that aren't too chunky, boasting a crispness, fluffiness, and creaminess that could sway even a staunch advocate of skinny fries like myself. ‌ These chippies set the bar by which I judge all other fish and chips. Having once been a local, I now stay in Glasgow, regrettably a 90-minute drive from chippy heaven. However, I've recently been given the mission to determine whether a posh serving of fish and chips justifies its price tag, reports the Express. Inspired by a review of £18 fish and chips, my quest led me to Crabshakk, the fashionable seafood eatery, which opened its doors in Finnieston well before it became the Glasgow's foodie epicentre. ‌ The restaurant has drawn in celebrities like David Beckham and Sam Heughan. Although the Outlander star kept mum about his meal, Becks excitedly shared his dining experience on Instagram, praising the scallops "cooked to perfection", rollmops reminiscent of his grandmother's, and, of course, the fish and chips. Their latest venture, Crabshakk Botanics off Byres Road, exudes sleek and chic with industrial black fittings, trailing greenery, timber-clad walls and floor-to-ceiling windows — an ambience my fellow diner described as "very New York". We agree it's the type of swishy restaurant to bring friends visiting from out of town. ‌ When I'm off on a weekday, as someone with inflexible working hours, I like to wonder what other people who are out and about do for a living. I don't have to think too hard – at noon on a Wednesday, the clientele at this upmarket seafood restaurant consists of three tables populated by well-groomed, silver-haired guests. Before a father and daughter arrive, we are the youngest diners by decades - a journalist enjoying a day off in lieu with a friend on the backshift. ‌ One look at the menu and you know it's for seafood lovers. Lobster, crab, scallops, langoustine, squid, Arbroath smokies — whatever you fancy, they've got it. Non-seafood mains are few, featuring one meat option (steak frites) and four vegan dishes. My companion opts for the complimentary fizzy water, whilst despite being off duty, my afternoon plans rule out alcohol. I spring for the Spicy Rita (£8), a coral mocktail blending citrus, sweetness and savoury elements that pleasantly evoked tomato flavours. Rather than the traditional salted rim, black Himalayan salt adorns one edge of the glass, not unlike a sandy bum on the beach. ‌ The service here is courteous and prompt. It's a quiet lunch service and our hefty plates of fried seafood and chips soon arrive. So, my verdict on £21 fish and chips — not worth it. Giving credit where it's due, it's a good meal overall and they certainly don't scrimp on portion size. The chips are creamy and delicious, but it's the fish that falls flat. While I wasn't anticipating it to be the best I've ever had, the fried coating is thicker, darker and oilier than it should be. A look at TripAdvisor reviews reveals I'm not alone in this observation. The creamy tartare sauce is good but one glaring omission are peas, mushy or otherwise. ‌ Meanwhile, my friend happily tucks into her breaded monkfish cheeks accompanied by skinny fries, salad and a tangy and moreish housemade ketchup (£27). To share, we can't pass on the tomato and watermelon salad with salsa verde (£9) garnished with what appear to be edible succulent leaves that provide pops of salty juiciness. The restaurant didn't invite me for a review nor were they aware I was conducting one. Having footed the bill, I winced at the cost but I'm not overly put out. I'm not against the idea of posh fish and chips. But I'd suggest holding off on the craving until you can make your way to the East Neuk of Fife.
