Jackie ‘O’ Henderson opens up on Sunrise about her incredible weight loss after retiring from her KIIS FM radio show due to health reasons

Radio host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has spoken candidly about her weight loss and recent health issues that have kept her off the air since November.

The mother-of-one, 47, said that although she had to step down from work late last year to recover from Covid, she is now feeling better than ever – thanks in part to WW, formerly known as Weight Watchers.

“As soon as I joined the program, my weight started to drop. It works for pretty much everyone,” she told Sunrise host Monique Wright.

“I don’t want anyone to be obsessed with weight or junk food. It’s not about calories; it’s all about being healthy.’

The KIIS FM personality added that a well-deserved trip to Fiji with her daughter Kitty, 12, in late 2022 had helped her feel physically and mentally refreshed.

Jackie said she’s been adopting some healthy lifestyle habits over the past two months that will come in handy when she returns to the airwaves on Monday.

“Cold showers, meditation, exercise and a healthy diet will be a huge benefit for me,” she said.

She announced in November that she was stepping down from KIIS FM’s The Kyle and Jackie O Show due to health issues.

Jackie, who has been coughing on the air and sounding unwell for weeks, explained that she has been in poor health since contracting Covid-19 a few months ago and needs proper rest to recover.

“I haven’t been doing very well since I’ve had Covid… I’m struggling with this fatigue,” she told listeners.

“I’ve been to the doctor several times and he said because I’m exerting myself every day, I just slept after the show and I’m not getting any better.”

“I just need to take some time off,” she added. “I’m closing the show today. Like right now.’

Podcast host Brittany Hockley, who hosts the weekend radio show “Life Uncut” for KIIS FM, stepped in as co-host while Jackie recovered.
