On her new role, Molly said: “I’m so excited to join Hits Radio Pride! My heart truly belongs in front of a radio mic playing the bops and feeling like I'm chatting away to my mates. I love that I get to keep listeners company in the afternoon; whether you're out and about for the fun of it or heading home from your working day, let's spend the afternoons having a laugh and toe-tapping to the tunes!”

Paul Gerrard, Programme Director, Hits Radio said: “I’m really excited to be able to announce that Mary and Molly are joining the Hits Radio team. We first met Mary through a Radio Academy event following our station of the year win and her energy and passion for radio is truly infectious! And Molly is going to be the perfect addition to our brilliant Hits Radio Pride line up - we've been quietly working behind the scenes with her and I can’t wait to see what she brings to weekday afternoons.”
