Sports presenter Darrell Currie has revealed that he will provide an update on his health soon and stated that he hopes to do some work for TNT Sports this season.
In January Currie said that he is suffering from a chronic pain condition that caused him to take time off from TV duties.
In his latest message, Currie added on Twitter that he is fighting as hard as he can.
He wrote: ‘Thank you very much for all the kind messages in recent weeks. Sorry I’ve not been able to reply. I’m going to give an update on my health soon but I’m very much hoping to be able to do some work for @TNTSports this season. I’m not giving up + I’m fighting as hard as I can.’
Currie – who is often seen helming coverage for the Scottish Premiership – announced he was ‘struggling health wise’ in October after two weeks away from the screen, saying he was seeing doctors to ‘get to the bottom of it’ without divulging on details.

In January he released a statement on social media saying that he feels ‘constantly dizzy, imbalanced and find walking difficult at times.’
‘Happy New Year to you all,’ he wrote. ‘I’m sorry I’ve not been with you on live TV recently. I have been dealing with a chronic pain condition which has brought challenges to my life as I feel constantly dizzy, imbalanced and find walking difficult at times.
‘I’m working very hard with doctors to find the root cause of this problem, but it has been an extremely tough time for me and my family. I am fighting with all my strength to try to find a way to recover.
‘I want to express my gratitude for all the support I’ve had in recent months and all the kind messages I’ve been sent have been warmly received. The support from people I work for and with has been incredible. I am truly thankful. I hope to return to live TV at some point in 2023.
‘My family provides daily motivation and encouragement. They constantly remind me that giving up is not an option.’
Before joining BT Sport (which has now rebranded as TNT Sports), Currie worked for BBC Scotland, CNN International and ESPN.
Following his update in January, Currie received messages of support, with commentator Ian Darke writing: ‘Darrell, you are so brave. Hoping beyond hope that everything will turn out well, and soon.’
Jake Humphrey wrote: ‘Sending love, best wishes, and strength to one of the kindest and nicest there is. We are missing Darrell at BT Sport & can’t wait to welcome him back when he is able. Hang in there buddy.’
