BBC presenter Dianne Oxberry has died suddenly at the age of 51 after recently being diagnosed with cancer
BBC presenter Dianne Oxberry has died suddenly at the age of 51 after recently being diagnosed with cancer, it was revealed today.
The married mother-of-two, who found fame working with Steve Wright and Simon Mayo on Radio 1, retrained as a meteorologist and became BBC North West's weather presenter in 1994.
The broadcaster was working in December but died at the Christie Hospital in Manchester on Thursday morning following her 'short illness'.
Ms Oxberry lived in the city with her husband Ian Hindle, a cameraman, and their two young children.
Her husband said today: 'Dianne was an amazing wife and mother who embraced life to the full.
'She was an inspiration to all who knew and loved her but also to the people who watched and welcomed her into their homes each night as if she were part of their family too.
'She will leave a massive void in our lives but because of the remarkable person she was she will forever live on in our hearts.
'The children and I will miss her more than anyone can imagine.'
The couple met on the Saturday morning children's television show, The 8:15 From Manchester, and moved to London when she joined Radio 1, where she worked alongside Simon Mayo and Steve Wright.
Mr Mayo tweeted this morning: 'Devastated to hear this news. She was a wonderful, joyous part of our breakfast team at Radio 1. I loved working with her. My condolences to her family'.

She recently took part in a 100-mile relay walk for Children In Need but fell ill in recent months.
Her fellow BBC North West presenter Roger Johnson said: 'We are heartbroken by Dianne's death. It is almost impossible to comprehend. Dianne was North West Tonight. It's hard to imagine the programme without her.
'Our thoughts are with Ian and all of Dianne's family. We hope they will find some comfort in the knowledge so many people loved Dianne and will miss her terribly.'
After returning to to the north-west in the 1990s she presented BBC Radio Manchester's lunchtime show and later the station's flagship breakfast show.
Her passion was her family, but she was also a self-confessed 'full-time pet-collector', a lover of animals in particular horses.

Annabel Tiffin, also a presenter North West Tonight, said: 'This is an enormous shock for all of us. I can scarcely believe Dianne has died. She was loved by our viewers, by all of us at North West Tonight. My heart breaks for her family.
'Di was so talented, so beautiful, so funny and so full of life. On screen she was a star, radiating warmth and good humour. Off screen, she was a wonderful colleague, a loyal friend, and I will miss her terribly.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
