Charlie Bones Is Leaving NTS

He confirmed his departure live on air...

Broadcaster *Charlie Bones* is leaving NTS, it has been confirmed.

The popular host of the DO!! YOU!!! breakfast show became a lockdown staple, guiding ravers through the pandemic with his relentlessly positive shows.

A few moments ago, however, Charlie Bones sprang a surprise on fans - he will be stepping down from the London based online station.

Announcing his departure, he said he would be "going solo" after not receiving support from the station.

Charlie Bones said: "NTS did what they could for me. I hope they grow and build bigger and bigger. But outside of that my life is hell on earth. I deal with horrific pain, loneliness. I need something more... I just need love in my life.”

The news appeared to completely blind-side NTS, who commented:



It was as much a shock to us as it was to all of you. Here’s to ten years of Do!! You!!!

Charlie Bones joined NTS in 2011, and grew to become one of the station's most notable voices. Writing on Instagram after stepping down, he commented:

"Peace and love to everyone who got in touch with unbelievable amounts of appreciation. Let me take some time and I’ll be right back with the plan. I cannot express how much I appreciate your gratitude for all the love and passion I put into this. I’m not quitting radio in anyway whatsoever."
