Johnny Vaughan has announced the death of his father, Randall, at the age of 91. The radio presenter shared the news on Instagram, posting a heartfelt tribute to his 'dearest dad'.
In the post, Vaughan included a photograph of Randall with a dog peeking out from under his cardigan, captioning it: 'My Dearest Dad has gone and I'm so very sad.' He also added a quote: 'I will find you in the morning sun and when the night is new: I'll be looking at the moon but I'll be seeing you.'
Former Big Breakfast co-star Denise Van Outen was among the first to offer condolences, writing: 'Thinking of you Johnny. Sending you the biggest hug.' Kelly Brook added: 'So sorry to hear this sending you all the love in the world.' Other tributes came from Lizzie Cundy, Kate Thornton, and listeners.
Vaughan, who now hosts The 4til7 Thang on Radio X, typically keeps his family life private. He recently shared glimpses of a holiday to Marrakech with his partner and young son, describing it as 'unbeatable bang for your buck'.
