Lisa Snowdon has opened up about a difficult start to 2024, revealing she spent two months unwell and lost her beloved uncle. The 52-year-old Capital FM presenter shared the news while enjoying a holiday in the Balearic Islands with her fiancé George Smart.
Posting a photo of herself in a black bikini on Instagram Stories, Snowdon wrote: 'It's been such a weird year. It's started with me being poorly for almost 2 months. We lost my beloved uncle Mike. My family member who I love so so much has and is going through some other health conditions that I won't discuss right now. My dad has had surgery.... 2024 has not been kind to us.'
Despite the challenges, she expressed gratitude for the trip, adding: 'This trip has been wonderful, it's been reflective and it's been what we both needed. I appreciate I'm lucky to be able to travel, thank you to you who stick around on here and who are supportive to the max.'
However, her holiday ended on a sour note when British Airways cancelled her return flight. In a video, she vented: 'It was all going so well until British Airways cancelled our flight. I've been on the chatbot for two hours plus... absolute s*** show. Well done B.A., well done once again for ruining our holiday.' British Airways later apologised and said the issue had been resolved.
Last year, Snowdon spoke about feeling 'lonely' during perimenopause, urging women to seek help and information. She said: 'Knowing what we know now, we can work through it, we can navigate it, we can get the help we need – so don't be scared, just be prepared.'
