The former Strictly star, 41, was hosting Blue Peter back in 2012 and nominated for Polar Challenge which documented her 500mile trek for Sports Relief, only to be beaten to the Best Children's Presenter gong by actor Justin Fletcher. The presenter starred on the iconic BBC children's show from 2008 to 2013 and during her time on the programme she kayaked along the Amazon river, completed the Namibian Ultra Marathon, and cycled all the way to the South Pole. The TV personality shares Ernie, Louis, six, and two-year-old daughter Elsie, with ex-husband Richie Myler who she separated from in April 2022 and shortly afterwards the rugby league ace, 35, started a new romance with Stephanie Thirkill.
