The BBC Radio Ulster presenter Stephen Clements has died suddenly.
The 47-year-old, father-of-two, had presented the mid-morning Stephen Clements Show on the station since September.
He took over the programme from veteran presenter Sean Coyle, saying it had always been his "dream" to work for the BBC.
He began his radio career on Citybeat and then hosted Q Radio's Breakfast Show for seven years.
Last year, the broadcaster co-presented the BBC NI TV series Open for Summer during the Open Golf Championship in Portrush.
He also co-hosted BBC Northern Ireland's Children in Need programme last November.
BBC Northern Ireland Director Peter Johnston said: "We are sorry to bring you the sad news of the passing of our colleague Stephen Clements.
"Our thoughts are with Stephen's family, friends and colleagues, at this difficult time."
Mr Clements is survived by his wife and two children.
