Tess Daly, a member of Strictly Come Dancing, said that her time spent consuming “consumes a lot” of her time. Just days before she announced she is leaving the show, she announced.
Earlier this week, Strictly Come Dancing presenter Tess Daly announced that the current series of the show will be her last after “21 wonderfully joyful years”. The 56-year-old has been fronting the competition since its inception in 2004, firstly co-hosting with Bruce Forsyth followed by Claudia Winkleman.
Tess and Claudia stepped aside in a video with her co-star on Wednesday that stated it was time to “pass the baton on.”
Many fans have been left wondering why Tess made such a rumored salary of £150, 000 for her Strictly role.
Some people may not be aware that the presenter spends a lot of her time away from the cameras.
With her best friend Gayle Lawton, Tess co-owns the swimwear line Naia Beach, which was launched in 2021.
She recently shared her four-year venture with us, saying, “That’s my other baby, the business, and that requires me to work long hours every day, first thing in the morning, and last thing at night.
It grows and doesn’t sleep. And [I love building a business with my best friend, which is] really exciting] is] getting creative.
“But, it does consume a lot of my time. So I’m usually doing that, it’s wonderful,” she added, in a discussion with Giovanna Fletcher on the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast.
Tess continued, “It’s enjoyable, you know, its really satisfying but that takes up most of my time.”
The Strictly star is a mother to daughters Amber and Phoebe, both of whom are businesswomen and presenters.
Tess shares her children with her long-term husband Vernon Kay, who fronts the mid-morning show on BBC Radio 2.
The presenter’s family life has very much been a part of her time on Strictly Come Dancing.
Tess returned to work for the second series of the show just six weeks after the birth of the pair’s first child.
I returned six weeks after giving birth. Because I was a new mother, that was no mean feat. She shared that she had a caesarean.
The caesarean, which is a pretty major operation, worked out really well in terms of timing.
However, being a new mother for the first six weeks after giving birth presented some challenges for me, including not knowing what I was doing and not sleeping very well.
The odds are that Tess might sign up for her first reality series, Celebrity Traitors, after she announced her exit.
Although it was rumored that she and Vernon would be performing on Claudia’s show last year, Tess later claimed this never happened.
She recently told The Metro that “She]Claudia] knows I’d be able to read her mind.” I’d be terrible at playing poker and being a traitor.
Previously insisting this was true, Vernon said on Good Morning Britain: “Tess always laughs when she tells a fib, whereas I’m terrible.
“It’s not convincing. I think it would be an interesting psychological experience, The Traitors.”
