BBC Radio 2 breakfast host Scott Mills has been abruptly dismissed from the broadcaster. The 53-year-old was taken off air last week amid a complaint, with the sacking confirmed on March 30. It comes after a 2016 police investigation into alleged offences against a teenage boy, though no charges were filed.
Hold the phone, darlings—Scott Mills, the 53-year-old king of BBC Radio 2's breakfast slot, has been given his marching orders. The BBC confirmed on Monday, March 30, 2026, that he's 'no longer contracted to work with the BBC.' He was yanked off air last Tuesday, March 24, following a complaint about his personal conduct. 😲 Staff? Total shell-shock, per the Mirror reports. Director of Music Lorna Clarke spilled in an internal email: 'I wanted to personally let you know that Scott Mills has left the Breakfast show, and the BBC. I know that this news will be sudden and unexpected and therefore must come as a shock.' Oof, the tea is piping hot. 👀
