Being a mum can do that to a woman.

She is what she is. Why is this even a thread?

Oh I didn't know she'd had a kid! (or was expecting, even)

I see she had a daughter in May. Interesting choice of name; Barbara

Ahh the May birth explains it, she was still carrying when the show was recorded!!


As Ok/Hello and other such mind pap are not on my essential reading matter, as trawling through facebook and twitter dosnt feature high on my to do lists, this passd me buy..
And you know what, the world hasnt stopped turning

Thats a slight poke at the sad crowd that must know who is doing when where and with whom, otherwise their life just isnt worth living

She used to be a presenter that played poker.

She's now a poker player that does some presenting on tv.

I don't think she is THAT lucky.
Although I am certainly attracted to his wit and intellect.

Are you doing that hilarious PH thing of pretending not to know who a celeb is? How very droll.
Boring, but droll.

Or maybe you have genuinely not heard of heard her. I know she's not exactly 'Beyonce' or 'Kim Kardashian' famous.
If somebody is mentioned that I've never heard of - I Google them. It's usually quicker and more interesting than waiting for somebody on PH to reply telling me who they think the person in question is.


I've really liked VCM for a long time. She's very smart. Has a great, self-deprecating sense of humour. In her 20s-30s she was very good looking (to my tastes, anyway). She has won millions in prize money in professional poker competitions. She had her own national newspaper column while she was still a schoolgirl!

Two time European Champion. I would say that makes her pretty good.
