Zoe Ball's iconic 1970 jumper is still available to shop as she announces she's quitting Radio 2


Zoe Ball has announced she is stepping down from the BBC Radio 2 Breakfast Show after six years. The presenter wore a Bella Freud 1970 jumper for the occasion that's still available to shop

Dressed in her stylish Bella Freud 1970 jumper, Zoe shared with her listeners, "After six incredible years on the Radio 2 Breakfast Show, it's time for me to step away from the very early mornings and focus on family." The iconic knitwear isn't just a chic fashion statement but also a nod to her birth year, and whether intentional or not manages to symbolise a poignant moment of change for the beloved presenter. Scott Mills, set to fill her shoes at Radio 2, joined Zoe as donned the £355 black 1970 jumper for the bittersweet announcement and celebratory snaps outside the BBC studios.
