Stephen Clements had presented the mid-morning Stephen Clements Show on the BBC Radio Ulster since September.

The presenter died suddenly aged 47.

BBC Northern Ireland Director Peter Johnston said: "We are sorry to bring you the sad news of the passing of our colleague Stephen Clements.

Fellow BBC Radio Ulster presenter Stephen Nolan said his colleague's "warmth on air was a true reflection of the real you - a kind, decent human being with so much natural talent".
