Vernon – who stepped in for Zoe – informed fans of the schedule change on his social media, too.

"Couple of mornings on BBC Radio 2," he penned. "Get well quickly, Zoe. 5am wake up plays havoc with the eye bags."

It comes after Zoe shared a rare snap of her daughter Nelly as they enjoy a holiday together in Mallorca.

The sweet photo saw Nelly, 12, pouting into the camera as she rests her chin on her mum's head.

Zoe shares Nelly with ex-husband Norman Cook, aka Fatboy Slim. The former couple split in 2016 after tying the knot in 1999.

They are also parents to 21-year-old son Woody, who made his TV debut on The Circle 2 on September 24, 2019.

In 2020, Woody appeared alongside Zoe on Celebrity Googlebox.
