ZOE Ball has claimed she was overlooked for jobs in favour of ex-best pal Sara Cox as she talks for the first time about beating her rival to the Radio 2 Breakfast Show gig.
The former Live & Kicking host was announced as Virgin Radio bound Chris Evans’ successor in October, despite Sara being hot favourite for the coveted position.
Her appointment was met with a lukewarm response from Sara, who filled in regularly as Chris’s holiday cover, highlighting the growing divide between the former close pals.
Zoe, 48, defended Radio 2 bosses’ decision and insists she didn’t break any kind of friendship code.
She said: “We but spoke a lot during the whole process.
“We’re old buddies and we’ve always been really supportive of each other. Sometimes she gets jobs I’ve wanted. We always talk. It worked out.”
But she confirms the pair are no longer close, adding: “We don’t see each other a huge amount any more.”
Zoe admits Sara’s new gig means everything “turned out very nice” in the end and believes their shows will bring them closer together, just like their hell-raising Radio One days when they defined the ladette era in the nineties.
Speaking to the Radio Times, she said: “We were reminiscing about the first time round, when sometimes we didn’t sleep at all. It’s so different now. We need eight hours or we’re really grumpy.
Or seven with an afternoon nap. But you know, she’s up there (London), I’m down here in Sussex.
“We don’t have a social life any more. But professionally, work-wise, we’ve always supported each other. We start on the same day, which is wonderful.
“We are going to ring each other before to try to keep calm. She’s an amazing broadcaster. She cracks me up. She has so much energy. It’s all turned out rather nice.”
Zoe kicks off her reign as Radio 2 Breakfast Show host next Monday.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.
Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
