Zoe Ball confirms she has bursitis weeks after BBC Radio 2 return
Zoe Ball revealed she has been diagnosed with bursitis, a condition causing painful and swollen fluid-filled sacs over joints, just weeks after returning to BBC Radio 2 with a new show.
This health issue follows Ball's previous announcement of having temporomandibular joint disorder, which affects jaw movement and causes headaches.
Ball returned to BBC Radio 2 in May for a new Saturday afternoon show, a more relaxed schedule after hosting the breakfast show for five years, which she said left her "knackered" due to 4am starts.
Fans celebrated Ball's return to the radio, with many expressing how much they had missed her presence on the airwaves.
Ball stepped down from the breakfast show at the end of 2024 to focus on family after her mother's death from cancer in April 2024, with her father noting she is now in a "good place" with her new schedule.
