A popular radio host has been forced to leave her morning radio show on Wednesday after receiving ‘tragic news’.
Jade Robran, who hosts FIVEAA’s Winter Breakfast show with Tom Rehn, was presenting her program before abruptly leaving the studio just before 7am.
Tom then addressed her shock departure, informing listeners there had been a death in her family.
‘Jade unfortunately has had to go home, there has been some unexpected and very tragic news, there’s been a death in her family so we wish Jade all the very best,’ he said.
‘Hope you’re okay, Jade, if you’re driving home listening right now. Jade, we love you. We hope you’re okay with the rest of the family.

‘Hopefully she’ll be back tomorrow. That’s very, very sad news.’
Tom continued presenting the show on his own until 9am.
It comes after a Melbourne radio star surprised fans by announcing his shock departure.
Jack Post, 37, who has made a name for himself on The Christian O’Connell Show on Gold FM, quit the program on in May in an emotional Instagram post.
Jack shared a slew of snaps from his time on the show, including one of him playing a guitar in the studio with Christian O’Connell and another with his wife Bianca and son Gordon.
Telling fans that it was one of the ‘hardest decisions’ he had ever had to make, the radio host revealed the reason why he was calling his time on the popular breakfast program.
‘I love this show deeply, and it has given me so much. But there is something in my gut telling me it’s time to close this chapter and write the next one,’ he wrote in the caption.
‘When I left radio with Hamish & Andy in 2017, I honestly didn’t know what was next for me then — but I had an excitement and giddiness for the thrill of what it could be.

He added: ‘I’m so happy it turned out to be The Christian O’Connell Show.
‘It’s time to step away again, make space, and see what’s next,’ he shared.
Jack said that he was grateful for the listeners who tuned in for the morning show over the years.
‘Thank you to each and every listener who chooses this as their breakfast show.
‘I love talking to you in the mornings, I love meeting you on the street — don’t stop saying hello,’ he wrote.
The radio star then went on to thank his colleagues at the station, particularly Christian, who he said had been on of the ‘most profound relationships of my life’.
