Kaye Adams, a well-known broadcaster, has been temporarily removed from her BBC radio show due to an internal complaint. The 62-year-old host of “Mornings With Kaye Adams” on BBC Radio Scotland has been asked to step back as the network investigates the issue. Adams, who has been hosting the show since 2010 and earning £155,000 for her role, has been absent from the airwaves since October 6.
BBC Scotland declined to comment on the specific complaint but assured that Adams has not permanently left the organization. They emphasized having rigorous internal processes to address such concerns. The BBC stated that they do not discuss individual cases and have established protocols to handle complaints effectively.
The complaint against Adams is believed to have been raised under the BBC’s Call It Out program, designed to tackle workplace misconduct. This initiative was launched following a scandal involving former MasterChef presenter Gregg Wallace. In addition to her BBC radio role, Adams is a familiar face as a presenter on ITV’s “Loose Women” and as a freelance host for various BBC programs.
While an investigation is ongoing, Connie McLaughlin is filling in for Adams on the radio show. Recently, Adams shared details about a health scare she experienced after a Pilates class, where she felt symptoms similar to a stroke. She described the frightening experience during a podcast, attributing the sensations to vertigo caused by dislodged ear crystals.
Adams’ representative denied the allegations, stating that she has had a long-standing professional relationship with BBC Radio Scotland without prior issues. The situation continues to unfold as the network conducts its inquiry into the internal complaint.
