Résumé détaillé

The BBC Radio 2 presenter has completed a five-day ride that took him through Scotland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales

Owain Wyn Evans has crossed the finish line and completed his four nations cycling challenge, raising a whopping £3,349,220 for Children In Need.

The Welsh broadcaster, 42, completed a five-day cycle ride that saw him begin in Scotland, before continuing on through Northern Ireland, England and Wales.

Crossing the finish line at just after 11.00am in Cardiff, the 42-year-old became emotional as he said: “I can’t believe I’m here.”

He was greeted by scores of supporters cheering him on, as well as his husband Arran Rees, and the two embraced and shared a kiss.

The presenter, whose bike was named Shania Chain , said: “Thank you so much everyone, from me and Shania.

“Honestly, this has felt so far away for such a long time. I can’t believe that I’m here with this welcome and the sun’s out!”

Asked how he was feeling, Evans said: “Just reflecting on what it’s been like. We’re doing it all for an amazing cause, Children In Need.

“There are so many children who need our help and who will be helped by all the donations.”

Hours earlier, Evans was cheered on by a very famous face - The Princess of Wales.
