She first appeared on our screens over 20 years ago on The Big Breakfast. Since then, TV presenter, producer and writer Anna Richardson has fronted some of Channel 4’s biggest shows including Supersize vs Superskinny, The Sex Education Show, Secret Eaters and most recently Naked Attraction.
Here, the 53-year-old opens up about her experience with menopause, how she handled her famous split from Sue Perkins and why she won’t stop talking about sex!
You’ve carved out a niche for yourself in sex and relationships – how did that happen?
It’s weird, it wasn’t planned. As a presenter, I’ve always been unafraid to tackle taboo subjects. From the age of about 27, I started presenting a show called Love Bites for teenagers on ITV. I became the go-to girl to talk about relationships and sex, where perhaps other people felt uncomfortable.
We still have issues with teen pregnancy, pornography and young boys not knowing what is and isn’t consensual sex, so it needs to be talked about.
Menopause is something else you’re really passionate about…
It’s about educating women. Sex, love and relationships don’t end after you’ve had your family and when you stop having your periods. But a lot of women feel like they’re not able to talk about the changes in their bodies and changes in their relationships.
How has your body and relationship with sex changed over the years?
