The radio star’s ‘illness’ comes after it emerged on Tuesday that The Kyle And Jackie O Show had lost the top spot in the Sydney breakfast radio ratings to Jonesy and Amanda.

Beau Ryan filled in for Kyle, while Jackie ‘O’ Henderson kept references to her co-host’s absence relatively brief.

The former NRL star revealed on Thursday’s show that he and Kyle had been in contact, telling listeners: ‘He texted me, he sounded cool last night.’

While he did not reveal the context of the messages, he admitted: ‘I don’t know what is going on with Kyle.’

A producer then chimed in, saying: ‘I am hoping he will be back’.
