The veteran radio broadcaster has recently shared his diagnosis with prostate cancer, and has been inundated with support from his listenership since announcing the news
The seasoned radio star was speaking to his podcast co-host Jeremy Dixon about the matter on their Opinions Matter podcast when he shared the news.
He wed his long term love Linda Byrne in 2017, in a stunning ceremony in Tullamore. The couple said "I do" at the Bridge House Hotel, Offaly, in front of over 100 guests. "We are going to be doing a two-week cruise from Sydney, taking in places like Fiji and Tonga and the South Pacific islands, and that finishes in New Zealand."In the same year, Adrian dealt with a horrible situation and was left "visibly shaken" after someone sent a disturbing text focusing on his family to his morning radio show. The text was sent during 98FM's Dublin Talks radio show, co-hosted by Adrian and Jeremy Dixon.
Speaking as part of Newstalk’s Standing Up to Bullying campaign on Lunchtime Live in 2021, he shared how radio saved him from the experience. On the show, Adrian told listeners about the “constant” bullying he endured as a teenager. In an act of great resilience, he then decided to start engaging with radio at the weekends as a form of escapism from what he was dealing with.
