BARRY & AMANDA: ‘WE LAUGH UNTIL WE CRY!'

THE DYNAMIC DUO TELL ALL ON THEIR LASTING FRIENDSHIP

- Joshua Joynes

Together they’re one half of The Living Room, where they join Miguel Maestre and Dr Chris Brown to serve up expert advice on everything from renovating to pet care. But it’s hard for Amanda Keller and Barry Du Bois to consider their nine-year-long gig on the couch as ‘work’ when, in reality, it’s a total blast!

From the minute the pair begin dishing on each other, it’s clear there’s no secret to their electric chemistry and quick-witted banter. And as Barry tells New Idea, his friendship with Amanda is simply unbreakable!

“We’re similar and different in so many ways,” he explains. “We have been through the same sort of things over the years, from IVF to the loss of our mothers – we’re close in age and so we have shared a lot of life.”
