Sally Taylor was a host on BBC South Today. She worked with Harry Gration, who has since passed away. The journalist recently paid Harry Gration, who used to work with her, a tribute on Twitter.
People want to know what the well-known BBC host has been doing all this time and why she quit South Today so long ago. Taylor has been the host of the BBC show since 1987, and her fans loved her.
Let’s find out more about what happened to Sally Taylor, where she is now, and what’s going on with her health and illness on South Today.
What happened to South Today’s Sally Taylor?
Sally Taylor, who was the host of BBC South Today, left the show in 1999 after she was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 42. The host said she was leaving the show to get ready for a major operation to treat her breast cancer.
When the journalist was told she had breast cancer in early March, she chose to have a double mastectomy to deal with it.
Sally had surgery not too long ago to remove a lump from her right breast. But her doctor told her to get rid of her right breast because there were cancerous cells on the lump, even though it wasn’t cancerous.
Since her mother died of breast cancer when she was in her 30s, the 42-year-old woman decided not to take any chances and had both of her breasts taken off.
In the late 1990s, the co-host of South Today left the show to get ready for surgery.
Taylor did come back to BBC South Today for a few minutes. For example, he filled in for Dorcas Henry when he passed out live on air in 2003. She also led the South Today Debate with Naga Munchetty on BBC One. In 2010, they did a show called the Spending Review, and in 2020, she was on BBC South News.
Tonight, I talk to best-selling author Kate Mosse, who says that libraries are “basic to the health of a town.”
Is she sick or has she retired? Disease and Health News
Even though she hasn’t officially said she’s retiring, Sally Taylor is still working on getting better and hasn’t been back on TV yet.
But she was recently seen paying tribute on Twitter to Harry Gration, a famous broadcaster who died suddenly. She wrote, “Whatever wonderful memories you have of the warm, caring, well-loved, and talented #HarryGration, hold on to them! I know I will, and there have been so many #WhenHarryMet posts. Sally, I’ll miss you, my dear friend. “Helen, I’m thinking of you, x”
Since they worked together on the BBC show South Today from 1995 to 1999, they became very close.
The co-host of BBC South Today still hasn’t fully recovered from the breast cancer she had in the 2000s. She was reportedly taken back to the hospital in April 2021 for more treatments.
I wanted to set some things straight. As my colleagues on @BBCSouthNews have said, I’m getting better after being in the hospital. Thanks for all the nice messages. I’ll be back on TV, but I don’t know when yet!!
Sally tweeted about her health in 2021, saying that she was getting better after being in the hospital. Since then, she hasn’t said anything else about her health. So, we hope the reporter is doing well and taking care of herself.
