Suzanne Kane has revealed she is at home battling pneumonia this week - as her 98FM co-host Brian Dowling holds down the fort.
Suzanne explained her absence from their morning show and expressed her shock at becoming sick just as summer begins. She wrote on Facebook: "I’m off sick - I mean, who gets pneumonia in May!" But nothing would stop the radio presenter celebrating her show’s recent JNLR figures as she took to social media to celebrate.
"When you work in radio, every quarter, someone adds up numbers and they tell you how many people listen & if your show is gaining ears, which you really would like to happen. Ears are important," Suzanne added while sharing some "brilliant" news while recovering at home.

"In brilliant news the show has gained more listeners and I know how amazing the future of 10am - 1pm on 98FM is going to be." Although stuck at home for now, the radio presenter has assured fans she is on the mend and can’t wait to get back to work to her "happy place" with former Big Brother winner, Brian, whom she says "is doing amazing."
The hard-working mum-of-three gave a shout out to Brian from her sick bed. And she urged her listeners to keep on listening after hearing about her increased fan base.
"If you listen to the show, thank you!" she said. "If you haven’t yet, give it a whirl. I promise you’ll love it."
