LBC’s Steve Allen says he’s doing his best to be back at work soon

Steve Allen has been absent from his LBC early breakfast show since mid-February causing his listeners to wonder why.

The speculation has continued despite stand-in presenters explaining that Steve isn’t feeling too well and will return to work when he feels better.

Earlier this morning LBC tweeted: “Thank you to everyone who’s got in touch to ask about Steve Allen. Steve is still feeling unwell and taking a few more days off. He’s asked us to thank you for all your kind messages.” The message was also retweeted by Steve.

Later, Steve tweeted: “I am truly humbled by the amount of messages of support and promise you all I am doing my very best to be back with you all ASAP, a million thanks from the bottom of my [Red heart emoji].”

This was Steve’s first tweet since 7 February, so hopefully he’s feeling better and will be back on-air before very long.

Thank you to everyone who’s got in touch to ask about Steve Allen. Steve is still feeling unwell and taking a few more days off. He’s asked us to thank you for all your kind messages.
