‘My first lovely radio memories are of my dad,’ says Zoe, 51, whose father is former children’s TV presenter and national treasure Johnny Ball. That was when she met a zippy TV host called Zoe Ball.

As a teenager in Norfolk she was classically trained before taking part in the reality series Popstars and being chosen for the band Hear’Say. Myleene has shows on both Smooth and Classic FM at the weekends, switching over from pop to classical music, but then that has always been her life. ‘If I had to go back and explain this to my 15-year-old self, I don’t think she would ever believe it.’ It’s extremely powerful,’ she says enthusiastically.
We’ve each had to elbow our way through and speak up, use our voices, literally, to get a place at this table.

‘You’ve got black girls here, white girls, I’m representing Southeast Asian girls. Looking around at our shoot, Myleene is struck by the diversity in the room – one that is reflected on the airwaves.
I would go out, sob and come back in, take a deep breath and speak. I rang Lauren and she said: “Do one link, take a breath, come out and call me.”’ It must have been so traumatic. ‘I went to the loo while the music was playing and there was blood everywhere. Nobody knows this more than Myleene Klass, 43, who suffered a devastating miscarriage while broadcasting at the Smooth Radio studios in Leicester Square a few years ago and says it was her close friend Lauren Laverne who came to the rescue. There’s a weird assumption that women are competitive with each other ‘I’ve actually just breastfed Clara – I don’t know if that’s too much information for you. She was so nice and lovely that day, and has been my energy queen and life coach ever since.’Ĭlaudia is as gloriously offbeat as ever at 50, making gentle fun not just of this love-in but of the age difference between its participants. ‘I didn’t know anyone but I’ve always been a massive fan so I went up to her quite shyly and introduced myself. ‘The first time I met Claudia was at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards,’ says Clara, embracing her friend. She got her start as an intern on Kiss FM and found an early supporter and mentor in one of the women here today. ‘I had a go and thought, “I need to do this.”’ Sandals, Kat MaconieĬlara, whose parents emigrated from Ghana, grew up in London and got her first taste of radio on a school trip to the Design Museum where Capital had set up a studio for kids to record a few links. It was ridiculous!’Ĭlara wears dresss, Alice and Olivia,. It just so happened that the show before it was also presented by a woman, and the reason my boss gave for turning me down was that: “Listeners don’t like to hear two women back to back”. ‘When I was first on commercial radio in 2012 I told my then boss that I would really love to host a certain show. Not so long ago the biggest shows across the stations were almost all presented by men, but look across the schedules today and so many of the most popular DJs and presenters are women – and collectively, our hosts reach more than 20 million listeners.Ĭlara, 37, who presents on Radio 1, welcomes these changes and says they are long overdue. The host of Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs and the breakfast show on BBC Radio 6 Music is here today as one of six broadcasters – Zoe Ball, Clara Amfo, Claudia Winkleman, Moira Stuart and Myleene Klass being the others – gathered by YOU to celebrate the rise of women in radio. I’ve seen all my favourite people in one place on the same day – it’s like a brilliant night out.’ ‘It’s been like herding cats, because we all know each other. 'I feel really sorry for the photographer,’ says Lauren Laverne, laughing. Skirt, Ghost, Tights, Hedoine. Zoe Ball wears dress, Massimo Dutti.
