Louise Minchin shares her journey post-BBC Breakfast, including family life and her new writing career
London: Louise Minchin is making a comeback on TV, and it’s exciting! She’s set to take on the Gladiators in a New Year special, and I can’t wait to see it.
She’ll be teaming up with some familiar faces like Rob Beckett and Joel Dommett. It’s going to be a fun challenge for them against those fierce Gladiators.
Louise has been a fan of the show since it first aired, but her family finds it hilarious that she’s doing this at her age. She shared that when she told them, they all burst out laughing.
They think it’s a bit ridiculous, but deep down, they know it’s her idea of a good time. After leaving BBC Breakfast, she’s kept a low profile, only popping up on TV now and then.
Louise was a mainstay on BBC Breakfast for two decades, and she finally decided to step back in 2021. She started as a guest host and became a beloved part of the team.
She loved her job but found the early mornings tough. Louise mentioned that after years of waking up at the crack of dawn, she felt it was time to move on.
Now, she’s focusing on her passion for writing. She recently appeared on ITV’s James Martin show, where she talked about her new book, ‘Isolation Island.’
This is her third book, but it’s her first dive into fiction. The story revolves around celebrities in a reality show that goes awry, inspired by her own experience on ‘I’m A Celebrity’.
Louise is also a fitness lover, enjoying hiking, cycling, and running. She often shares her adventures on Instagram, keeping her fans updated.
In her personal life, she’s happily married to David, and they have two daughters and two adorable Labradors. They tied the knot in a lovely ceremony back in 1998.
Louise’s journey after BBC Breakfast is all about embracing new challenges while cherishing her family life. It’s great to see her thriving!
