Steph McGovern is notoriously private about her family life away from the spotlight. Her partner’s name and job remain a mystery, whilst her daughter has yet to make a starring appearance on her Instagram grid.
During a recent interview with Prima magazine, however, the TV presenter, 41, gave fans a rare glimpse inside her life off-screen – and it’s as charming as you might imagine.
Despite her hectic work schedule, the broadcast journalist detailed how she adores being a hands-on mother.
“I film at lunchtime, so I get to take my daughter to and from nursery every day, which is unbelievably amazing,” she revealed.

Opening up, she explained: “I’d love to be a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing, but it’s never been the right time to do it. I can’t do it now because I have the show and I don’t want to be away from my daughter, but I’m hoping it will still be going in years to come.”
Whilst not much is known about Steph’s love life, the former BBC Breakfast star is thought to be dating a TV executive. Together, the loved-up duo are doting parents to their two-year-old daughter.

For now, it seems like Steph and her partner are relishing spending quality time together as a family of three.
In an interview with The Sun’s TV Magazine, she said: “Now Saturdays and Sundays are about my partner and my daughter. My perfect Saturday is taking my little girl swimming, then we’ll go out for lunch with her, which is chaos, but we pretend it’s fine.”
