Fiona Bruce ‘mortified’ following doctor’s shocked reaction to her health admission
Presenter Fiona Bruce, who is hosting Antiques Roadshow tonight (January 11), previously opened up about feeling “mortified” after visiting the doctors.
The 61-year-old married the non-executive chairman of Digital Cinema Media Nigel Sharrocks in 1994. Soon after, they started a family of their own.
In January 1998, they welcomed a son named Sam and then a daughter, Mia, in November 2001.

Fiona Bruce admits she was ‘mortified’ following doctor’s reaction
In 2022, Fiona revealed in an interview with Woman & Home that her doctor was “appalled” after she told her she did absolutely zero exercise after giving birth to her son.
“I never did any exercise until I went to see a GP before or just after I had Sam. When asked if I did any exercise, I said ‘none,’ and the doctor replied ‘Literally none?'” she explained.
“I said ‘no’ and I was mortified because she was so appalled,” Fiona continued.
The TV star has since discovered her passion for running and opened up about how it has benefited her mental health.
“To me, exercise isn’t about living longer but it gives me energy and I don’t know what I’d be like without it,” she says.
“If I’m feeling stressed at work or stressing that I’ve got a lot on, I find it really helpful.”

‘I think I’ve slightly over-stretched myself’
Speaking back in 2019, Fiona admitted that she previously tried to “cram” too much into her schedule, which ultimately resulted in feeling “too tired”.
“I have had years when I’ve tried to cram more things in. I had one year, five or six years ago, where I just became ill. Physically, I just couldn’t do it all. I wasn’t seriously ill but it was a bit of a wake-up call. I remember thinking that I just felt too tired so I became more judicious about what I chose to do and not do,” she said.
Fiona added: “I feel that someone in my position should do as much of that as they can. I think I’ve slightly over-stretched myself on that front along with my BBC work, so I’m trying to be more sensible on both fronts about managing my time.”
