Wikipedia Biography / Profile Background

Introduction :

Amy Jessica Irons is a Scottish TV presenter, radio star, voiceover artist, event host and certified sports journalist.
As the former co-host of Capital FM Scotland Breakfast Show – one of the UK’s most successful breakfast shows – Amy had won her listeners’ hearts, entertaining them each weekday from 6 AM.

More recently, she has joined BBC Scotland as a Sport and Entertainment presenter.

Personal Life, Parents and Family Details :

Born and raised in Dumfries, Scotland – a beautiful town nicknamed Queen of the South – Amy has always had a keen interest in sports since her family’s life was constantly revolving around football.

Amy’s passion for living under the spotlight might stem from her father – the football player Davie John Irons who had a 26-year-long career as a central defender for various clubs such as Ayr United, Clydebank and Dunfermline Athletic.

A Personal Tragedy :

In June 2018, Amy’s boyfriend, then 34-year-old Wayne Ewer, took his own life in the couple’s apartment in Glasgow. The radio star was devastated and spoke openly about her own suicidal thoughts following the death of her partner.

A few weeks after the terrible incident she revealed that Wayne used to drink and use cocaine occasionally and then he would try to harm himself.
Upon realising how important it is to pay close attention to those around you in order to prevent suicides, Amy has spoken publicly about the tragedy she has gone through, hoping she can make a difference in other people’s lives.
She has paid tribute to Wayne by posting photo albums and video compilations illustrating their moments together.

Education : Qualifications, High School & College Info

Amy went to St Joseph College in Dumfries from 2003 to 2009, and then chose to study Multimedia Journalism at Glasgow Caledonian University. She graduated in 2013 with a First Class Honour’s Degree.
In 2013, she was the winner of a Scottish Student Journalism Award for Investigative Journalism – the Callum MacDonald Memorial Award. She received this award for an informative documentary discussing a range of legal psychoactive substances and their dangerous repercussions on people’s health and behaviour.

Career, Job, Salary and Net Worth :

The company that launched her career as a sports presenter was Bauer Media, from Ayr, Dumfries. Amy has worked there as a reporter for West FM and West Sound Radio.
Following that, she had a long stint as the live presenter of STV News and STV Glasgow’s Riverside Show.

Amy became the co-host of the well-known Capital Breakfast Show, together with the stand-up comedian Des Clarke. However, the show has recently replaced the Scottish team following new radio regulations, and their listeners are now waking up to new voices.
Embracing the change, Amy has joined BBC Scotland as a Sport and Entertainment Presenter. In 2019, she covered the FIFA Women’s World Cup, live from France.

Interesting Facts, Height and Trivia :

Besides presenting, Amy is also a producer and can shoot and edit the content of her reports.
As an event host, she has worked for prestigious names such as The Princes Trust, The Scottish Italian Awards, The Royal Bank of Scotland and House of Fraser.
As a proof of her high-quality work and expertise, Amy was nominated for a Bauer award for a special report for the 25th anniversary of the Lockerbie Bombings, while she was working for Bauer Media.

Amy posed in a stunning bikini photo in May 2019, that was posted to her Instagram account. The picture received over 1200 likes. Her Insta account now has over 7,000 followers.
One of Amy’s favourite singers is Tom Walker, who she had the chance to meet in April this year. She documented the encounter, posting a picture of them on her Twitter (now called X) account, accompanied by a characteristically sweet description: “They say don’t meet your heroes, but this man was as lovely as I’d imagined he would be.”
Mournful and desperate, Irons revealed that one night, a few weeks after her partner Wayne’s death, she drove to a bridge wanting to end her own life. However, moments before proceeding to do so, the rational part of her awoke and made her realise how hard it would be for her loved ones to lose her.
