Andrea McLean comes across as one of the happiest people on telly, lighting up our lunchtimes on Loose Women almost every day. So it was a surprise when she recently confessed to having a breakdown last year, keeping it a secret until now. We caught up with the 50-year-old presenter, who revealed what actually drove her to ‘crack up’ and how she’s managed to cope since. Andrea also chats about why she’s been so grateful to have her husband of two and a half years, Nick Feeney, and children Finlay, 18, and Amy, 13, in lockdown, and their plans for once it’s lifted.
Hi Andrea, how has lockdown been treating you?
It’s weird, but, touch wood, we’ve all been healthy and well, so I think that’s all we can be thankful for.
How has it been spending more time together as a family?
What’s been really nice is, although we’re all together, we’re not on top of each other. We’ve all cordoned off little spaces in the house to do our work during the day, and then we’ve made sure we’ve done fun things together. It’s been like a very long, weird, summer holiday!
