Lauren Laverne ‘thrilled’ to return to BBC’s The One Show after cancer diagnosis

Lauren Laverne has made her TV return on The One Show after getting the “all clear” following treatment for cancer.

The 46-year-old, who also hosts BBC Radio 6 Music’s breakfast show and Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs, revealed her cancer diagnosis in August, saying at the time that it had been caught early and she “expected to make a full recovery”.

Returning to her regular presenting role on The One Show, co-host Alex Jones said during Tuesday’s episode: “I’m delighted to say that Lauren is back by my side. Miss Laverne we have missed you so much, you look brilliant.”
