Roman Kemp admits he left Capital job because of friend’s suicide: ‘Imagine a tragedy happening in your house, you’d want to move’

Roman Kemp has admitted that he left his role at Capital in part due to the death of his close friend, Joe Lyons, who died in 2020.

Roman Kemp has revealed a key reason behind leaving his role at Capital FM. The 31-year-old star recently hosted his final show on the radio station – nine years after joining back in 2014. “This show is run by so many people behind the scenes who try so hard to give you that bit of energy in the morning and to try and get you up and feeling good, but I think what I want to get across is just how much fun I’ve had on this station in the past 10 years,” he then said.
