Kaye Adams has spoken about the 'difficult' time she has faced since being axed from her BBC Radio Scotland role, amid an investigation into allegations of misconduct which she strenuously denies. The 63-year-old presenter, speaking at the British LGBT Awards, expressed gratitude for the support she has received from friends and colleagues.
Adams told the Mirror: 'It's been a difficult period - but to have friends who trust you and have faith in you and stand by you has been the most amazing thing to come out of it, so I'm really grateful for that.' She described the backing from her Loose Women co-stars as 'life-affirming'.
Fellow panellists have publicly supported Adams. Stacey Solomon called her 'one of the kindest women in telly', while Jane Moore noted their 30-year working relationship and said she had 'only ever seen her be kind and supportive to junior staff'. Sunetra Sarker described Adams as 'a remarkable, professional and kind colleague'.
Adams was initially suspended from the BBC in October 2024 during the investigation, before being axed from her £155,000-a-year radio show in February 2025, ending a 15-year tenure. She also commented on changes at Loose Women, including the new studio without a live audience, which she likened to a 'Sylvanian Families' set, noting the intimate atmosphere and improved energy among the team.
