It seems Graham has decided to follow in the footsteps of fellow media personality Chris Evans, who previously swapped the BBC for Virgin.
Graham has since confirmed he will present his final Radio 2 show on 19 December. He joined the show in 2010, and instantly became hugely popular with listeners when he replaced Jonathan Ross.

"Obviously I'm sad to be stepping away from my Radio 2 show," he said in a statement. "I'll miss being a part of the Wogan House family, as well as the listeners and their lives.
"I'd like to thank my producer Malcolm Prince and all the teams I've worked with for a great decade of radio. Happily with the chat show, Eurovision and Drag Race, the BBC continues to be my perfect TV home."
