Aussie Radio: Kyle, Jackie O Leaving 2Day FM


The popular radio duo made the shock announcement this morning that they will not return to the airwaves together as the Kyle and Jackie O Show in 2014, according to The Australian.

"We're proud that Kyle and Jackie have not only given Sydney radio audiences the most entertaining radio show ever, they have also raised millions of dollars for charities and those in need whilst also enthralling listeners with the world's hottest music artists and exclusive interviews with famous Hollywood celebrities. They have certainly lived up to their show mantra 'Breakfast with the Stars'! None of which could have happened without the strong and dedicated team working hard behind the scenes," Southern Cross Austereo Head of Content Craig Bruce said in a statement on their website.

Southern Cross Austereo tweeted the news to followers this morning.


Austereo spokeswoman Lisa Schillaci told news.com.au the network hasn't yet considered who might replace the duo.

Speculation has been rife for weeks that something was afoot with the high profile pair unable to come to an agreement on contractual negotiations.

Some media outlets had suggested that rival radio station Nova was in talks to poach the pair.
