Kyle Sandilands was spotted exiting the KIIS FM studio in North Sydney on Monday after he revealed to listeners he has been diagnosed with a brain aneurysm.
The radio star, 53, appeared downcast as he was driven out of the station’s car park, seated in the passenger seat.
Dressed in a plain black t-shirt and a matching baseball cap, Kyle maintained a low profile.
The radio star’s usually energetic demeanour appeared subdued as he sat silently while he exited the carpark.
Fans of the radio star have expressed their support and well wishes since his heartbreaking admission earlier in the day.
Meanwhile, Kyle’s co-star Jackie ‘O’ Henderson appeared to be in better spirits as she was spotted making her way out of the studio.

The 50-year-old showcased her slender figure in a pink T-shirt paired with baggy denim pants and was all smiles as she got into the back of a waiting vehicle.
During their radio show on Monday, Kyle made the bombshell admission that he has a brain aneurysm and requires immediate emergency brain surgery.
‘On Friday, I was told by my medical team – which sounds like I’m already very sick, that I have a brain aneurysm. It requires immediate attention, brain surgery,’ he said.
‘My doctor said if I didn’t get it checked, I would have died. A life of cocaine abuse and partying are not the way to go!’
He then cracked a joke about the show’s lower ratings in Melbourne.
‘If you just tuned in to us after all these years, lap it up. And if you’re in Melbourne… you’re coming to the party too late. You may get your wish. I may be dead.’ he quipped.
Co-host Jackie O Henderson said: ‘Let’s think positive.’
‘That doesn’t work in real life,’ Kyle responded.

The presenter then explained his condition on air.
‘It’s not a blockage. It’s like, imagine your blood vessel is the garden hose, and the hose is weak and it blisters out like a big bubble, like a puncture in it. It’s like a bike tyre with a big bubble – that bubble’s the aneurysm, so it’s not blocked,’ he said.
‘It’s expanded and if it bursts, (I will become) either a vegetable, in the wheelchair, or dead.’
He revealed his doctor had banned him from doing cocaine, having sex, masturbating, heavy lifting and becoming stressed.
Kyle then revealed the effect the sad news was having on his loved ones.
His wife Tegan Kynaston, 39, who he welcomed son Otto with in 2022, ‘bursts into tears’ every time she sees him since they got the sad news, he revealed.
Kyle was absent when the show returned on Tuesday last week, and Jackie O told listeners he had vomited on himself.
He returned on air on Wednesday and Thursday, but was away sick again on Friday.
